Check your computer's settings to enable the pop-up blocker.

How do I know if my online application was received?

Once you have completed your application and select the Submit button, you will receive an acknowledgement message thanking you for applying.



What is the salary of a position?

All salaries are based upon experience, therefore it is important to be as thorough as possible when listing work experience on your employment application.



Do I have to complete a separate application for each job for which I wish to apply?

No. The same application may be used to apply for multiple jobs. You must remember your username and password to accomplish this. We recommend you record this information and keep it for future use.



How may I submit an application for a position that is not currently posted?

We accept applications only for positions for which we are actively hiring. You may register for our Job Agent located in the gray box at the bottom of the Job Listings page. This service allows you to select positions that are not currently posted but that you are interested in for future employment needs. The system will send you an automatic email notification when the position(s) is posted and applications are being accepted.



May I submit a résumé?

Individual résumés are not accepted for positions but may be attached to the electronic application via your personal computer. (Note: The computers provided in the Human Resources Department do not have the ability to allow the uploading of information.)



What action is needed if I see the pop-up message: "Incomplete Working Shift" after attempting to submit my application?

Scroll back up to the top of the application to the area concerning your shift availability. You must select Yes or No for each question under Would you consider working.



Why did I get an "Invalid Social Security Number" message?

You must include the dashes when entering your Social Security Number. Example: XXX-XX-XXXX.



Will I be notified on the status of my application?

Because of the high volume of applications received, we are unable to contact each applicant. You may, however, check the status of your application online by logging into the Job Agent, which can be found by clicking here.
