Placement Services for Students and Alumni

The Placement Office services Western Seminary students and alumni. All of our ministry position openings are available for you to review on the website. Be assured that the website is kept current. Listings are updated daily and remain on the site for four (4) months. At that time, the respective churches notify our office to renew or remove their listing. If a church does not contact us, their opening is automatically removed. This ensures that what you are reviewing is current. To search our current listings, please click on the link below.

  You are welcome to submit a current resume to our office. On occassion, faculty members request to review resumes the Placement Office has on file. Resumes are kept on file for one year. After one year, if you are still seeking a ministry position, please contact the Placement Office and submit a new (more current) resume. Please Note: The Placement Office does not send out resumes to churches on behalf of the candidates. We request that candidates contact the church directly; this is a more professional approach.

  The Candidate Information Form is a resource available to benefit you. It incorporates a lot of valuable information you may need to consider when applying for a pastorate. Completing this form is not required for using our services.

  If you have further questions related to placement, please contact our office via e-mail, phone, or visit.
