1. Identify the specific job title for which you are applying. Our employment applications allow you to apply for up to three positions. We suggest you read the job description(s) for the job vacancy very carefully before submitting your application/resume. Your application/resume will be active for 60 days from date of receipt by the Human Resources Department.

2. Include addresses and telephone numbers of your former and current employers.

3. Proof of highest level of formal education, certifications, accreditations, etc. and any other information specifically requested in the job announcement must be provided at the time of application.

4. We prefer that you complete our application for employment. A completed employment application gives us more information about a candidate than most resumes do.

5. Qualifications will be evaluated based on the information you provide us in your application/resume and cover letter. The amount of experience and education you have and the way you describe them will determine how far you advance in the recruitment process.

6. Do not include personal information such as a picture, age, date of birth, gender, marital status, number of children, religion, medical condition, etc.

7. The Library will not automatically reject an applicant who has been convicted. AN APPLICANT SHOULD NOT DISCLOSE INFORMATION REGARDING CRIMINAL ARREST OR CONVICTION RECORDS THAT HAVE BEEN EXPUNGED OR SEALED.
