Union County offers an online job application hosted by GovernmentJobs.com that provides a convenient way to submit employment applications. Through the site, you will be able to create a username and password for your personal account. Once your account is created, the online employment application can be created by clicking the Create Application link. The completed application is then on file for you to resubmit for additional or future positions postings. This is a secure site. Only Union County staff members have access to information you submit.

All sections of the employment application must be completed at the time of submission. Employment applications that are not fully complete when submitted will not move forward in the review process.

Please account for your entire work history. It is important that your application shows all the education and experience you possess. If you have held more than one job with an employer, please list each job separately. Be sure to include explanations for any gaps in employment.

Applicants are selected for an interview and/or testing based on information supplied on the employment application and supplemental questions section. Review your application for accuracy including capitalization, grammar, punctuation, and spelling before you submit.

A resume may be submitted in addition to the employment application by simply copying and pasting it into the designated area or by attaching an electronic copy. A resume may not be submitted in lieu of the employment application. Do NOT substitute any part of the application form with the words “See Resume.” If a resume is provided, be sure the information matches the information supplied on your application. Discrepancies between these items may prevent your application from receiving further consideration.

Provide no fewer than three references.

Read and answer the supplemental questionnaire (if applicable) carefully. Responses to the supplemental questions will be used in the selection process. Neatness, clarity of expression, grammar, spelling, and ability to follow instructions will be considered in evaluating your responses.

Applications must be completed and submitted by 11 p.m. on the closing date identified for each posted position.

Remember, your application package is our first impression of you. Take the time to submit it completely and accurately.

Only fully and correctly completed applications will receive further consideration. Applications with incomplete work history or with multiple grammar, spelling or punctuation errors will not move on in the review process.
