Effectively using the employment system
Effectively attaching documents
At any time, you can login to the Employment Web site and view the status of positions to which you have applied.
After logging in, your status page appears. From any other place in the site, you can navigate to this page by clicking on ‘Application Status’ in the left navigation.
If you have not applied for any positions, you will receive a message letting you know that you have not yet applied at Illinois State University. Refer to ‘Search for openings’ and ‘Apply for Positions’ for more information.
Once you have applied for a position at Illinois State University, a table will appear listing the position(s) for which you have applied, the confirmation number, the date you applied, and the status of your application. You can view the application and supporting documents (if applicable) by clicking on the links in the Application and View Document boxes.
Your status could remain as “In Progress” for a number of weeks. Applicants are typically not reviewed until the job posting closes and many postings stay active for several weeks.
As your application(s) move through the system, the status may change and will appear in the Status box for each vacancy. If you did not complete applying for a position, your status will appear as Incomplete. Click the ‘Complete Applying’ link to finish the application process. You will be able to use this link as long as the posting is active.
You may choose to withdraw your application for a position by using the ‘Withdraw Application’ link in the status box. Do not withdraw your application. You will not be able to reapply for the same position once you have withdrawn.
