When applying

Q1. Can I submit an application form without applying for a specific position?
NTU are unable to accept speculative applications. When you apply it must be for a specific post that is currently being advertised. Due to the volume of recruitment we undertake, it is not possible to keep any such applications on record.

Q2. Can I submit a CV as part of my application?
Yes there is a facility within the online application process to upload supporting documents, however it is still important that you complete the application form as fully as possible.

Q3. Can I submit a CV and covering letter instead of an application form?
No, we ask everyone who applies for a vacancy at NTU to submit a fully completed application form.

Q4. The advert states that a post is 'internal only', can I still apply?
These vacancies are only available to NTU staff, although they are often made available for external applications in the weeks after their initial advertisement. Therefore, we recommend that you check the NTU website on a weekly basis to see if the post has been opened to general applications.

Q5. I have previously applied for the same or a similar post, can I apply again, and will you still have my previous application on record?
Should you wish to reapply, or apply for a similar post, you will need to complete and submit another online application form, along with new copies of any supporting material you uploaded with the previous application. There is a facility within the online application process to copy previously submitted data but this must be reviewed and submitted for the new post. We suggest that you make sure any copied data reflects any changes relevant to the application.

Application data are removed periodically so some of your older ones may not be available.
