  1. What is the best approach to handling Jobs@UNI issues with the applicant login process and uploading attachments?
    Because Jobs@UNI is a secured system, the best approach is to close all web browser windows and restart the applicant login process or retry uploading the attachments.

  2. What is the primary method of communication?
    An email address is required for all applicants and is the Jobs@UNI primary method of communication.

  3. Why will my University CatID login not work to apply for positions?
    Current UNI employees will first need to Register for a separate Jobs@UNI account in order to apply for a Jobs@UNI position.

  4. Can I be automatically contacted when a position is posted that matches my interests?
    New jobs are posted regularly. Search Agents will review only the listings that match your criteria. By using Search Agents, matching job postings may be emailed to you as often as you specify.

  5. How long does the search process take and what should I expect for communication during the search process?
    The length of the search process can vary widely based on the size of the appliant pool, whether phone screens are conducted prior to interview selections, the time it takes to schedule and conduct interviews, etc. You will receive an email confirming that you have successfully applied for the position. From there, if you are selected for a phone screen or an interview, you will be contacted by the hiring manager or search committee to make arrangements. If you are not selected for an interview, you will receive an email at the conclusion of the search process notifying you that the position has been filled.

  6. What is the Full Consideration Date?
    The Full Consideration Date is the final date applicants can apply for a position and have their submitted application materials fully considered for the position. The Full Consideration Date must be at least 14 calendar days from the advertising start date. Application materials received after this date may be considered by the Search Committee, however, they are not required to review them.

  7. What happens if I submitted my application with an incorrect email address?
    Email is the primary method of communication for the Jobs@UNI system and it is very important to verify your email address for accuracy before submitting the application. Email address information must be changed in two locations in order to fix an incorrect email address issue.  First, update your email address in the general User Information section by clicking once on the Edit User Information link on the My Jobs@UNI Admin page. Finally, follow the steps in Modify a Submitted Application, under User Information to update the email address submitted with the application. Please remember to save all changes in order for the email address update to take effect.

  8. Can I delete an application?
    No. You cannot delete an application. Once an applicant applies for a position, the system will not allow the application to be deleted. If you would like to withdraw from a position, send an email to jobs-support@uni.edu with your name and the position you would like to be withdrawn from further consideration.

  9. What can I do when the file size of my document is too large for Jobs@UNI?
    If your file is too large to upload, try using a PDF document. PDF documents can be compressed if the document size is too large for the Jobs@UNI system. For assistance on compressing a PDF file, please visit Adobe and CutePDF for document compression instructions.

  10. If my Jobs@UNI session times out or I log out, do I need to close my web browser window or quit the web browser application on a Macintosh® system?
    If your session times out or you Logout on a Macintosh® system, go to the Safari® Application menu and choose Quit Safari. You can also hold the '⌘' key and press the 'Q' key to Quit the Safari® program.

  11. How do I save my updated reference information in the Final Application Review?
    If you have edited and saved reference information, first go to the References section in the Application To Do List, de-select the checkbox next to the name of the reference with updated information, and then re-select the checkbox to pull the updated information.
