Tips and Support for Online Job Applications

Browser Requirements
You will need to use an Internet browser that is compatible with this application – Internet Explorer 5.0 and above.

Using the Online Job Application
You will need to fill out an online application for each position for which you would like to apply. Each application will only be considered for the accompanying job number.

Use the online employment application when you know that you will have uninterrupted time to complete it. You will have a maximum of twenty (20) minutes to fill out each screen page of the application. A timer is located at the bottom left of your browser indicating the time remaining for each page. You will not be able to save your work, so if you don't finish within the time period, your server connection will be reset and you will lose your work.

Each field of the online job application can only hold a limited amount of text. When typing in the application, if the field stops accepting any more text, then you have reached the limit for that text field area.

To take advantage of the online employment application, it is recommended that you print out a blank application first. This will help you to prepare for the information that will be required when you complete the online application.

You will have the ability to attach a resume. There is a size limit of 250K per attachment. It must be in either a ".doc" or ".pdf" format.
