How long does the application take?
We recommend that you give yourself at least 30 minutes to complete the application initially.  Be prepared to list three references (professional and/or personal) and their phone numbers as well as the details of your employment history.

I don’t have an e-mail address and/or I am not interested in using my Fletcher Allen Health Care work email on my application. How can I get one?
New applicants or Fletcher Allen Health Care employees can learn more about free email here.   Please know that if you share an email address with someone, and you both would like to apply, you will need to acquire an additional email address, as our application system only allows an email address to be used by one person.

I don’t have a computer.  Where can I go to apply for jobs?
There are two computer kiosks available at the Fletcher Allen Health Care Employment Services office, which is located at our UHC Campus, 1 South Prospect Street, St. Joseph 5.

What’s the best way to search the job postings?
We suggest that you leave all check boxes blank and click the yellow "Search" button which will list all open positions. This ensures that you will see all open positions. Once you have found a job that you want to apply for, add it to your job basket.  After you click "Apply for Jobs in Basket," you will be prompted to begin the Online Application.

 

How often are the postings updated?
Daily.  

*What’s the correct way to move between pages in the Online Application?
Use the "Next" and "Previous" buttons at either the top or the bottom of page to move forward or back in the application.  Please do not X out of the application or you will lose all of your information.

 

*On some of the application pages, there are no "Next" or "Previous" buttons. What should I do?
This is a quirk of the system.  On pages where a "Next" or "Previous" button does not exist, there will be a "Cancel" button.  Click on the Cancel button to return to a previous page. 

 

If I am attaching a resume, do I need to complete the Online Application in entirety?
If you are not a Fletcher Allen Health Care employee, yes.  This is because we link our background checks for new hires to the Online Application.

If you are a Fletcher Allen Health Care employee, you have to complete the application in entirety, but there will be large parts of it that you can skip, if you choose to attach a resume.

How do I attach my resume?
You will be given the option to choose to attach your resume on the first page of the application.  Below are instructions on how to attach.  (Due to system limitations, we are unable to put these instructions on the page itself; our apologies for any inconvenience.) 

Click the "Browse" button to find the file you wish to attach.  Double click on the file.  When the file name appears in the box next to the Browse button, click "Upload" to attach it.  You will then be prompted to complete the Online Application.  Once you have submitted your entire application, you will be able to view the uploaded attachment.

Can I attach a different resume each time I apply?
Yes, as long as it is not on the same day. The system can only process one resume attachment per day. 

 

Can I apply for more than one job at a time?
Yes. One of the benefits of our online system is that you can select up to five jobs to apply to per week. 

 

*I have already filled out an Online Application.  When I return to apply for more jobs, and click on Apply for Jobs in Basket, why am I brought to the beginning of the Online Application?
The system is giving you an opportunity to make changes to your already-saved application.  If you do not have any changes to make, simply click "Next" through the application and then click "Submit" on the last page.  The Submit attaches your existing application to the new jobs. 

(Please note the exception to this is if you are attaching a resume: you will have to upload it each time.)

 

Do I have to update my online application every time I apply for a job?
Only if your contact information or qualifications have changed significantly. You only need to update the information that has changed. 

 

What happens to my application after it is submitted?
If you meet the screening criteria, your application will be reviewed by the Hiring Manager. The Hiring Manager will contact you directly if he/she would like to set up an interview.

How can I check the status of my application?
You may check your application status by clicking "Application Status" at the main menu of the Applicant Home page. The Application Status page will show the jobs you have applied to and the status of your application.
