How to apply

Overview

Applications and job searches for all Aurora positions are conducted via our Web site. The Apply Online system is a 3-step process:

1. Searching for and locating a job(s) of interest
2. Creating an online application/profile
   • Uploading a resume (optional)
   • Completing a profile (contact information, work history, education history)
   • Answering job-related questions
3. Submitting online application material

The average time to complete the initial process is 30-45 minutes.

Once your information is entered into the system, you may access and modify your record at any time by simply logging in with the email address and password you used when you created your profile.

Please note, the system will not save any of your information unless you either:

• Complete the whole application process, or
• Click on the "Save as Draft" button on the Questions page

Step 1

Searching for a position that matches your skills and training is the first step of the process. If needed, here are some detailed instructions.

1. From any page on the Web site, click on the "Jobs" link at the top of the page.

   • Not a current Aurora employee and you will continue in the process.
4. Enter the Keyword(s) or City. Use Keywords if you may want to try a variety of terms. For instance, if you are interested in a CNA position, try: aide, assistant, nurs*, (the "*" informs the system to search for all words that contain part of a word in them; i.e., if you want to search for a nurse position you could put in nur* and the system will search for nurse, nurses, nursing, etc.).
5. Use Advanced searching to choose the shift or other specifications you wish to search by. Remember, the fewer specifications you make, the more results you may receive.
