Although applicants can submit application materials to several job openings, please note that it is Delta College's practice that candidates who accept part-time employment are only able to hold one position within the college at a time.

Employment consideration at Delta College requires applicants to meet qualifications as listed in any posted position. Online postings summarize the essential functions and requirements for the position. Applicants are typically required to answer supplemental questions that support experience and education as relates to the job posting. In addition, applicants may be required to submit supplemental application materials that include: resumes, cover letters, Curriculum Vitae transcripts and recommendations. Applicants who do not meet required qualifications or submit required documentation will not continue through the search process.

Please thoroughly review both job posting requirements and submitted application materials to determine if you have all of the necessary electronic files to submit your application.

Once completed online application materials are submitted, applicants will receive a confirmation message that appears within the screen.

All hiring decisions are based on qualifications for the selection of the best talent.
