Bibibop
1022 North Meacham Road, Schaumburg, IL, USA
In August 2013, our dreams became reality and we were finally ready to bring the bold flavors and healthy ingredients of South Korea to Columbus, Ohio.

From the time we opened the doors to our first location, our fresh food and quality service caught on in our community and quickly spread like wildfire. Since then, we’ve grown to dozens of locations across the nation while maintaining our commitment to bringing WELL B•ING to all the communities in which we set up shop.
We are looking for upbeat, hardworking Team Members to ensure exceptional customer service and consistent operations.
What we’re looking for: • Excellent customer service to ALL guests • Team players – we all depend on each other for success • Enthusiasm and a positive attitude toward all assignments • Quick learners that shine in a fast pace environment
What we offer: • Competitive pay • Free meal during shift, discount outside of work • Advancement opportunities • Part time positions • Good service industry hours (no late nights). • Opportunities to give back to the community

Description of Department, College, and University
The Department of Biomedical and Health Information Sciences is within the College of Applied Health Sciences at the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC). UIC is a public research university with a Carnegie One Research University classification. In addition to the College of Medicine, collaborative efforts span six additional health science colleges—as well as Engineering, Computer Science, and Business. UIC is a major research university with $350 million in annual external funding. As a $1.5 billion enterprise, the UI Health System is unique among U.S. academic medical centers in its focus in delivering personalized health to “at risk” populations.
BHIS houses programs at the undergraduate, graduate, and post-professional level, including a new PhD program in Biomedical and Health Informatics. The four programs include: Biomedical and Health Informatics (BHI), Biomedical Visualization, Health Informatics, and Health Information Management, consisting of 22 full-time tenure track and clinical rank faculty and 65 adjunct faculty. BHIS’s projected 2018-19 total enrollment will be approximately 700 students, and is the second largest department in the College. Importantly, of the four BHIS programs, Biomedical and Health Informatics remains the primary research unit in the department. In 2011-16, BHIS managed $4.8M in awarded grants.
