What to Expect After You Apply

SBCTA analyzes the education, experience, and related background on all applications received by the closing date. This generally takes three to six weeks from the recruitment closing date.

SBCTA reserves the right to rate applicants based on a review of the application materials and to invite only the most qualified applicants to participate in successive parts of the selection process.

SBCTA conducts independent interviews with the finalists, and the applicable department makes the final selection. All applicants are notified as to the status of the recruitment once a selection has been made.

When eligibility lists are established, they are only for those who are invited to and pass an interview.

SBCTA is an equal opportunity employer.

Your username is the email address linked to your account. If you forgot your username, click on 'Forgot Username' below the 'Sign in' button. On the next page, enter the email address you used to sign up and click on 'Send Username.' You will receive an email from info@governmentjobs.com with instructions. If you do not see the email in your inbox, check your spam/junk folder. The email address that you enter must match exactly what appears on your profile. If it does not match, you may receive an error that User with that email was not found.
If you forgot your password, click on 'Reset Password' below the sign in button. On the next page, enter your email address, answer the security question, and click on 'Reset Password.' An email is sent from info@governmentjobs.com with a link to reset your
password. Once you click on the link, you are directed to a page where you can create a new password. Enter a new password, confirm the new password, and then log into your account. Passwords must be at least 8 characters in length and contain

In the event that you cannot receive the reset password email, you should create a new account at GovernmentJobs.com with a valid email address.

This may be a result of too many programs running at the same time. We recommend you close all of your Internet web browser windows and any other applications you may have open and restart your computer. GovernmentJobs will save your application with the section you last completed provided you saved your work.

Our job bulletins will include any application deadlines. For many of our openings, the last day of filing is 'Continuous' meaning we will accept applications on a rolling basis.
However, we occasionally establish defined closing dates for some examinations.
Therefore, you are encouraged to apply promptly, as positions may close at any time based on the needs of the agency.
