What you can expect throughout the process.
Visit our open jobs on the State of Iowa Career page and apply. Each vacancy announcement includes specific application instructions and an application deadline date. Please follow the instructions listed in the vacancy announcements.
After applying, your application will be screened by our HR team to ensure you meet the minimum qualifications required for the job. Candidates meeting minimum qualifications will have their application materials scored, with top candidates being invited to participate in the interview process.
If you are invited to an interview, a member of our HR team will contact you to schedule time to meet with members from our organization.
After the selection process from the first interview, you may then be invited to participate in a second interview. Oftentimes, reference checks are performed at this stage of the process.
If you are selected for hire, you will then be notified and receive an offer letter! If you are ultimately not selected, you will be notified of our decision to pursue other candidates.
You can check your application status by signing in to your applicant profile, clicking on your name in the upper-right hand corner of the screen, and clicking on Applications. You are also able to contact the hiring agency that you applied to directly to request an update on the status of your application.
We've got you covered.
