How to Apply Quick Version

To find a position that suits your interests, click on Search Postings. You may apply for as many jobs as you like.

In order to apply you will need to first register as a user. Make a note of the email address used to register, your password and user name. You may upload or cut and paste your resume in a plain text format or a version lower than MS Word 2007 (Vista .docx). You may only upload one document, so if you would like to incorporate a cover letter, please combine it with your resume and save as one document.

On subsequent visits you may use an existing resume or provide a new or updated version. You may save your application and return later to complete it. When finished, click submit. You will receive an email confirming receipt of you application. Make sure to use the imbedded navigation tools in our application and not your browser's navigation features.

• Save Resume in Plain Text:
  In order to make the best impression, we recommend following these steps when inserting your resume into our online application system.


• Please note that these instructions assume that your resume is in MS Word for Windows, including Windows XP. If your resume was created using another word processing application or on a different computer platform (i.e. Macintosh), you may need to consult your word processing manual for specific instructions.


• Step 1: Save Your Resume as a Text Only document. A Text Only (called Plain Text in Windows XP) document works best for an electronic resume because you can adjust the formatting to suit the online application system in which you are working. To convert your MS Word resume to Text Only/Plain Text, do the following:


• Open the MS Word document that contains your resume.
  Click File in your tool bar and select Save As.
  From this list, select "Text Only" (*.txt). If you're on a Windows XP computer, select "Plain Text" from the pull-down menu.
  Click Save to perform the conversion.
  Now close the document and close MS Word
  Reopen the resume document that you just saved (*.txt) by clicking on its icon in the directory. That will open it as a Notepad document.
  After converting your resume to Text Only, what appears in your document window is your resume stripped of any fancy formatting. You are now ready to make a few final adjustments before posting it online.


• Step 2: Delete any references to "page two", "Continued", or your name or head on page 2.
  Make your resume appear as one continuous electronic document.


• Step 3: Use all CAPS for words that need special emphasis.
  For the best overall effect, use all caps sparingly and judiciously, highlighting only what you really want to have stand out.


• Step 4: Replace each bullet point with a standard keyboard symbol.
  Suggested replacements are:
  Dashes (-)
  Plus signs (+)
  Single or Double Asterisks (*) (**)
  Use the Space Bar, not the Tab Key, to place a single space immediately after each symbol (and before the words). Be aware that when your sentence reaches the right margin, it does not automatically continue to the next line. Make sure to use the enter key at the end of each line in order to ensure accurate formatting.


• Step 5: Rearrange text if necessary. Do a line-by-line review of your document to make sure there are no odd-looking line wraps, extra spaces, or words scrunched together in the body, making adjustments accordingly. This may require inserting commas between items that were once in columns and are now in paragraph format because tabs and tables disappeared when the document was converted to Text Only.


• Step 6: Copy the entire text in your *.txt document that you've opened in Notepad, and paste it in the designated space within our online application system.
