For those considering employment at Florida Community College, this publication answers some of the frequently asked questions regarding our employment practices.

Q: How does one find out what positions are open?

A: Job announcements are posted and circulated locally. Many are published in The Florida Times-Union, Sunday edition, and/or other widely circulated advertising media. In addition, announcements are listed on our FCCJ Job Line telephone service at 904.632.3161 as well as on our job vacancies Web page.

Q: Am I required to complete an application for each position I am interested in applying for?

A: Yes, you must complete a separate application for each position you are interested in applying for, and you must complete the entire application even if a resume is attached.

Q: Are faxed or photocopies of an application accepted?

A: Yes, faxed and photocopies of an application may be submitted to human resources. The fax number is 904.632.3097.

Q: Once I submit an application, how long will it take before I hear something?

A: Applications received will be screened against the minimum qualifications one to two days following the review date and periodically thereafter. Those applications that show evidence of meeting the minimum qualifications will be forwarded to the hiring department. Individuals whose qualifications and experience best meet the needs of the College will be scheduled for an interview. Finally you will be notified by mail that the position has been filled.

Q: I see a position posted on the Web site but the review date has passed. Is the position still open?

A: Yes, if the position is posted, human resources is still accepting applications. However, anytime on or after the review date the hiring department can request that the position be closed and no additional applications will be forwarded to them. Therefore, only those applications received prior to the review date can be assured of being forwarded to the hiring department, provided they meet the minimum qualifications.
