Apply for a Job Opportunity

Step 1 - Getting Started

Before you start, you will need a computer with Internet access.

You will also need a valid email address. An email address is required to establish your account. If you do not have an email account, free email accounts are available through providers such as Yahoo, Gmail, or Hotmail.

We suggest reviewing the information and document below before you begin the application process. 

Step 2 – Creating Your Account - If you already have an account created, skip to step 4.

To access the online application, create a user account with a username, password, and email address. 

Follow these steps (for new users):

  • Click the Create Application/Sign In link.
  • Select the “Create an account” link.  This is where a username, password, and email address are used.
  • You will then be re-directed back to the job opportunities page to apply for a position.

Step 3 – Completing Your Application ***For new accounts***

After you have created your account (Step 2),

  • Select the position title for which you are applying.
  • Scroll to the bottom of the position description and click on the green “Apply” button.
  • You will then be taken to the Create Application Profile page. Be prepared to spend 30 minutes or more completing the application. 

(You can “exit” out of the process and return to your application at a later time to complete and review before submitting. Note this is NOT submitting your application. The unfinished application will be in the “incomplete” section of your applications) For each step, the buttons at the bottom allows you to save or cancel your work on this entry. Be sure to include:

  • All education
  • All work experiences
  • All required reference information – see the job posting under ‘Special Requirements’
  • Completely answer all Supplemental Questions at the end of the application.

At the bottom of the application, you may also upload attachments such as a cover letter and resume.  For some positions a cover letter and resume are required.  Be sure to read the requirements for the position you are applying for any additional attachments needed. 

Be sure to review your application carefully, answer all questions, and ensure all attachments are uploaded before certifying and submitting your application. The application is the primary tool used to evaluate your job qualifications and incomplete applications may be rejected.

For help creating your application, please refer to the NeoGov Online Employment Application Guide (PDF).
