How to use the job vacancy facility

Searching

On the Search web page there are links to:
  • View all jobs currently available
  • View all jobs that have been added in the last 7 days
You can also search on the following fields:
  • Keywords e.g. job title, location, description
  • Occupational group e.g. IT, Clerical
  • Salary band
  • Working pattern (Full time or part time)
  • Date posted
  • Job reference from job advert e.g. ESC/123/xxx
    (Please note: this is case sensitive so enter it exactly as it appears in the advert)
You can search using these fields individually or as a combination. If you use more than one field you will make your search more precise but, in the process, may exclude jobs that might potentially be of interest.
Example: This search would display all current clerical, part time vacancies based in Mansfield.
  • Occupational group = Clerical
  • Term = Part time
  • Keywords = Mansfield

Search results

All vacancies searched for will be displayed in a list detailing the following information:
  • Job title

You can also go back to amend your original search or to start a new search.

Word Application Forms

You will need Microsoft Word on your computer to be able to read a Word document. If you don't then there is a link on the Application Pack web page to download a Word reader. When you click on a link for a Word document you will be given the choice of opening or saving the document. We would advise you save the document on your computer and then open it up from there.
Once you have completed the application form on a computer ensure you have saved it as a Word document. The filename should end in .doc. You can then send your completed application to e-mail: jobs@nottscc.gov.uk.
Please note: Ensure you attach the application form and any other supporting documents correctly to your e-mail. If we cannot read your attachment, we may be unable to proceed with your application.
We will confirm receipt of your e-mail and all attached documents to the sending e-mail address - please tell us if you would like to be informed by telephone.
