Clerical, Maintenance and Protective Services (excluding Police)
On October 30, 2017, the Department of Administrative Services (DAS) announced a new, statewide, On-line Application System(JobAps).
Although classified positions will continue to be posted on UConn’s Human Resources website, applicants will now be redirected to the State of Connecticut’s JobAps to apply for positions: https://www.jobapscloud.com/ct/. Paper applications (including NP-2’s green, internal applications), will no longer be accepted.
Note: NP-2, non-competitive (no examination required) job openings will continue to be posted on the department’s bulletin boards.
It is extremely important to complete the online application with all of the requested information. The work experience section must include the following:
Specific dates (month, day and year) Example: Start Date: 09/01/2012 – End Date: 07/30/2015
A list of all major duties you performed for each position making sure all relevant experience and qualifications are indicated
If any of this information is missing, your application will be marked as “not qualified” and you will not be considered for the job opening. It is recommended that you complete a master application which you can then use to apply for all future job openings.
You are no longer required to have an exam score for competitive positions. Just apply to the job posting through JobAps. DAS will evaluate the application to determine whether or not the applicant meets the minimum qualifications of the job specification. This evaluation will be considered the exam. Applicants will be notified if they are qualified or not qualified. Applicants not qualified cannot be considered for the specific job opening. Again, it is very important to complete the online application with detailed information showing that you meet the minimum qualifications of the examination/position.
JobAps is mobile friendly and can be used on devices such as tablets, cell phones, etc. Additionally, computer kiosks are available in the lobby of the Human Resources Department in the Brown Building on the Depot Campus. Applicants can also go to any public library or CT Job Center to access computers available to the public.
If you do not have an email address, the State of CT DOL has provided instructions for creating an email address, http://www.ctdol.state.ct.us/progsupt/unemplt/M1A/CreateEmail.pdf. Many providers offer free email.
You may find it helpful to use the following link, https://www.jobapscloud.com/CT/HelpTopics.asp, on JobAps’ home page, to answer some of the following, “How do I” questions:
1. Establish an account.
2. Create a master application (Employees must use a personal e-mail. It is not permissible to use a UConn email address.)
3. Apply for a job opening
4. Sign up to receive a notice when a new job opens
5. Update my application on file
