Please read the information provided in each job opening’s application packet, which typically includes a job bulletin, application, and supplemental (if applicable). To apply quickly and to ensure your application is competitive, we suggest you follow the directions below.

1. First, select a job that interests you.
2. Click on Apply
3. Next, create an account with the County of Orange. You do this by entering in a unique username, e-mail address, and a password. When this is completed, you will have created an account with the County of Orange. Please save your User ID and Password.
4. Next, create an Application. You can create as many applications as you want. The system will store these for you to use at a later date. This will save your information into the database and make applying for jobs today and tomorrow easier and faster. Just click on Create An Application and name your application so you can identify it later. Fill out the application as if you were applying for a job. This will also walk you through applying for your job as well..

   Job Application Steps:

   • Job Application
   • Agency Wide Questions
   • Supplemental (if required)
   • Confirm Application
   • Certify and Submit

   (Note that if you want to create an application for another time, just click on Save and View Application). Note that if you are at the Virtual Employment Center, you cannot copy and paste your resume into the application. Select Return to my Home Page and you will be returned to your Home Page.

5. After you have created your template, we suggest that you scroll down to My Interests and check off the categories that interest you so that you will receive automatic e-mails when a new job is posted in that category. Be sure to click on the Save button.
6. Click on CareerDesktop to view your applications that you have submitted in the past and their status.
