How Can I Tell If My Application Was Submitted? Can You Check the Status of My Application?

When applying for any job on the career center, we recommend your first step is to ensure you are logged in to your job seeker/candidate account. This is integral to trouble shooting if any issues occur, and also will help keep track of applications via your career center portal. 

Employers have up to three options they can open to allow for application when setting up their advertisement. How you receive notice of a successful application will vary a bit depending on which of these options you select when submitting your application. The following example shows what will pop up when clicking the apply button if an employer has selected all three available application options:

  • Job Board - This allows you to use your pre-uploaded resume (can be listed on your account as private or public) to quick-apply for the opportunity. Once successfully transmitted, the application button for this opportunity will no longer function and confirmation of the application will be logged on your "My Account" page. If you made an error, you can revoke your application which will reactivate the application button so that you may try again. 

  • Email - This option will open a pop-up box where you will enter your basic info (name and email) as well as upload any documentation (resume and cover letter) directly from your computer. The email is transmitted directly to the employer's hiring contact as soon as you finalize the submission and this application cannot be revoked. Once successfully transmitted, the application button for this opportunity will no longer function and confirmation of the application will be logged on your "My Account" page. You will also receive an email confirming who your application was sent to. If you have any questions or concerns on your submission, it is best to contact the hiring contact directly at the email address listed on this confirmation.

  • Company Website - This application button will take you directly to the employer's dedicated site to apply for the opportunity. Once you leave the career center, there is no longer a way for us to log the application process or confirm successful application transmission. The application button will not deactivate, nor will there be confirmation of the application on your portal. Typically an email will be sent directly from the employer to confirm the success of your application, but this does vary by employer. 

 

If you have any questions or concerns regarding the functionality of the application process, please connect with customer support at clientserv@yourmembership.com or 860-437-5700 option 1. We will need to know the email address on your account in order to pull up your information.

Please note that we cannot help in checking the status of your application or specific questions on the opportunity you have applied for; you will want to use the employer email address (when available) for these types of inquiries.
