| Q. I don’t have a computer at home. Where can I apply for jobs at AC Transit? |
| A. You can access external job postings for AC Transit anywhere you access the internet (including your local EDD office, public libraries, community colleges, and internet cafés). |
|
| Q. I can get to the internet, but I don’t have an e-mail address. Do I need one? |
| A. The application requires that all candidates register a user id, password and an e-mail address. Having an e-mail address also allows Human Resources to send you communication related to your submitted application for an open posting via the internet. If you do not have an email address, you may get one through various organizations who provide e-mail accounts. You may visit http://www.yahoo.com/, http://www.hotmail.com/, http://www.gmail.com, or your Internet Services Provider, for more information. |

| Q. Who can I contact with problems when I am applying online? |
| A. Please contact the AC Transit Job Hotline at (510) 891-4782 if you have technical difficulty applying for a position. The Human Resources Department’s normal business hours are 8:30 a.m.-5:00 p.m., excluding weekends and holidays. |

| Q. How do I look up open positions available to me? |
| A. Once you register on the Careers home page, the available open position listing will show on the lower part of the screen. You can also search for open positions by various criteria or you may also leave all options blank, click the Search button, and see every open position. Note: you may have to scroll down to view the results of your search, as computer screen sizes vary. |
|
| Q. How do I apply for a job posting? |
| A. You must attach one application to each job opening for which you are applying. You need only add one application if you want – then attach it to each opening that you are interested in. |
|
| Q. Can I attach or paste my resume instead of filling the on-line application? |
| A. You may submit a resume. However, to ensure proper consideration for each position, an on-line application must be completed. Each position has specific application requirements, which may include supplemental questionnaires, and screening questions. Please be sure that you submit all application materials together in one packet. |
|
| Q. If I am a current AC TRANSIT employee, must I add in all my employment information, including my current job duties? |
| A. Yes, employees’ applications are evaluated based on the information provided on their applications. Omission of your current position and/or duties, as well as other employment information, may result in the rejection of your application. Once you provide current employment information, you will only need to update it with new information on subsequent applications. Other information such as your address or licenses will be brought over from your employee record. Please ensure that your address and other personal information are current in the system so that it will appear correct on your application. |
