Online Application Tutorial for MCCCD Jobs

Overview

After reviewing this tutorial, you will be able to use the system to: 1. Learn about job opportunities at MCCCD.

2. Attach documents and complete an application for employment. 3. Log in to view the status of positions to which you have applied.

Items To Gather Before Beginning Your Application

1. Information regarding your employment, education, and references.

2. Electronic copies of documents such as a cover letter and resume that you wish to attach to your application. File formats for successful uploading are: PDF or .doc formats. Newer versions of MS Word .docx will create errors.

For Faculty Applicants Only:

1. Faculty applicants must submit unofficial transcripts

2. Transcripts from non-US institutions must be evaluated – for further instructions, please go to:

http://www.maricopa.edu/employees/divisions/hr/files/jobs/ForeignTranscriptEvaluation.pdf

Helpful Hints

1. The On-Line Application (OLA) works best on a PC with Internet Explorer. It is recommended to clear browsing history prior to beginning the application.

2. Do NOT use your browser’s “Back”, “Forward” or “Refresh” buttons to navigate the site. Use the navigational buttons within the application.

3. As you enter information in your application, save often in the page you are working in AND on the main page of the application – the “Complete Application” page. If you do not save on one of these pages, the information will be lost.

4. To protect the security of your data, the system will automatically log you out after no activity for 30 minutes. This will cause ALL the data you entered during that session to be lost.

5. Important URLs:

• To view current job openings: “Current Openings/Apply” website:

http://www.maricopa.edu/employees/divisions/hr/jobs/current • Applicant Home “Careers” page to apply for jobs:
