Application Process

On-line applications must be submitted for all vacancies, to include full-time faculty and classified employees, hourly/wage employees (except student employees and work/study students), and adjunct faculty employees. In addition, to the on-line application, faculty position application packets must include a resume and copies of transcripts of all college work completed.

The Employment Application System is designed to run in a web browser over the Internet. The system supports browser versions of Netscape 4.7 and above and Internet Employer 5.5 and above. The site also requires you to have Adobe Acrobat Reader installed. A free download is available at www.Adobe.com. An e-mail address is also necessary to apply on-line. If you don't have one, you can sign up for free e-mail at Hotmail, Yahoo!Mail or Excite. It takes only a few minutes to register!

If this is the first time you are using our online job application, you will need to create an account and select a "Username" and "Password", accessing the Recruitment Management System (RMS). The Recruitment Management System (RMS) is Internet based and only one web-browser may be open at that time. To protect the security of your data, the system will log you out if it detects no activity for 30 minutes. This will cause all the data you entered during that session to be lost. It is important that all documents needed to complete the application process be ready and available before starting. After entering the Recruitment Management System (RMS), you will not be able to click on the "back" button to return to our website. Click here to create your RMS account.

First time users will find the User's Guide helpful. The guide provides step-by-step instructions and will walk you through the process of creating your user-name, searching for jobs, creating an on-line application, and procedures for applying for vacant positions.
