Application Information
We're excited that you're considering joining our team! To make your application process
smooth and efficient, here are a few things to keep in mind. Before you start, have
your employment history ready, including dates, addresses, and phone numbers for previous
employers and references. This will save you time and ensure your application is complete.
You'll have about 30 minutes to complete the application before the system times out
due to inactivity. Don't worry, though – you can save your application as a draft
and come back to it later if you need more time. By being prepared, you'll breeze
through the application process. We can't wait to learn more about you!
You'll need an email address to complete the application. If you don't have one, you
can easily set up a free account on various websites. Once your application is successfully
submitted, you'll receive a confirmation email. If you don't see that email, it means
your application wasn't submitted successfully.
You can upload your resume in a word (.DOC or .DOCX format) document or a PDF file
at the start of your application and the system will fill out details of the application
automatically! Please review these sections carefully, and update as necessary. Additional
documentation noted as required (such as cover letter, references transcripts, statements,
etc.) may be submitted later in the application in the “Supporting Documents and URLS”
section of the application.
It is the policy of the university not to hire any person convicted of a crime the
nature of which is reasonably related to the applicant's fitness for the job. No person
convicted of a felony of any nature shall be hired without the approval of the hiring
unit's vice president or the Director of Athletics, if appropriate. Further, it is
against university policy to hire any person who has been convicted of (1) a felony
involving violence or (2) a sex crime against a minor or a sex crime involving violence.
The University of Wyoming is committed to providing a safe and productive learning
and living community. To achieve that goal, we conduct background investigations for
all final candidates being considered for employment. Background checks may include,
but are not limited to, criminal history, national sex offender search, employment
and motor vehicle history. Offers of employment are contingent upon the completion
of the background check.
The University of Wyoming will only consider degrees from accredited universities/colleges
that are recognized by the U.S. Department of Education.
It is your responsibility to ensure your application materials were submitted.  The
system will send an email that we successfully received your application. If you are
unsure you can double check your profile or call our office and we can check for you.
All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard
to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin,

Act (ADAAA), if you have a disability and would like to request an accommodation to
apply for a position, please call 307-766-2377 or email

any time prior to the date when the veteran applies for employment, or any surviving
spouse who was married to such veteran at the time of the veteran’s death, who is
receiving federal survivor benefits based on the veteran’s military service and is
applying for employment, shall receive an interview preference during the applicant
screening process with the University of Wyoming. At the time of application the applicant
must possess the business capacity, competency, education or other qualifications
required for the position. If disabilities do not materially interfere with performance
of job duties, disabled veterans will be given preference over able-bodied veterans.
Appropriate documentation of veteran status must be provided at time of application
as outlined in the application process. No preference will be given to a veteran currently
employed by a public department.
We conduct background investigations for all final candidates being considered for
employment. Offers of employment are contingent upon the completion of the background
