Applications may be completed via an electronic form and emailed to our department.

Yes, a separate application form must be completed for each position.

If your qualifications and experience meet the position requirements, Human Resources will identify you as a potential candidate and forward your application to the hiring manager.  The time frame varies and depends on the position and number of applicants.  If selected for an interview, you would typically be contacted 2 to 3 weeks after the closing date of the position.

Applicants with a criminal record are evaluated on a case by case basis. Be honest and forthright concerning your background on the application form and during the interview. A conviction will not necessarily bar you from employment, but will be weighed with respect to time, circumstances, seriousness, and the position for which you have applied.

You can email Human Resources or call 863-421-9926.
