Northwestern University has partnered with the University of Chicago; University of Illinois at Chicago; Argonne; Fermilab and other area educational institutions to form the Greater Chicago Higher Education Recruitment Consortium (GC HERC), launched in Fall 2007.

Through the sharing of information and resources, the GC HERC supports its member institutions in attracting outstanding faculty, administrators, and staff, with a particular focus on assisting dual-career couples.

The central component of the GC HERC is a web-based search engine that includes listings for both faculty and staff jobs at all member institutions and is available at no charge to anyone seeking employment in higher education. The search engine allows users to link two profiles and find jobs that match both search criteria.
