Thank you for your interest in employment at Palo Verde Community College District. The following is important information concerning the employment process.

Our employment application form is designed to assist the search committee in evaluating whether or not you possess the required knowledge and skills for the position for which you are applying. Job related information from all applicants will be evaluated to identify those best qualified. Only the best-qualified applicants will be selected for testing and further evaluation. Therefore, the application must be completed to allow a comprehensive review and evaluation. Failure to complete the application (and supplemental material, when required) will constitute failure to comply with the selection process and the application will be rejected.

1.  To guarantee consideration, a completed application and any other required material listed on the “Job Announcement”, must be received in the human resources office by the published closing date.

2.  Applications are only accepted for positions currently open for recruitment.

3.  Current employees who are applying for a position should be aware that material from their personnel files will not be included as part of the application packet, and they should, therefore, provide information on past and present employment in the same degree of detail as any other candidate.

4.  Applicants wishing to apply for more than one position must submit a separate application and required materials for each position. Legible photocopies of applications will be accepted only with an original signature and date.

5.  Complete all areas of the application. Do not write “See Resume”.

6.  Please read the job announcement/description carefully to insure your background meets the requirements of the position.

7.  It is the applicant’s responsibility to notify human resources of a change of address.

8.  Meeting minimum requirements does not guarantee an interview.

9.  Applicants should not expect official notification until the selection of the candidate has been completed and board approved.

10.  Please type or print (in ink) all information.

11.  The district reserves the rights to close, re-advertise, extend the recruitment period, or cancel filling a position at any time.
