How To Apply Online FAQ
- What employment opportunities are currently available at Brunswick?
- To view a listing of employment opportunities, click either “Search Open Hourly Positions” or “Search Open Salary Positions” in Brunswick.com’s “Careers” section. You can narrow your search using the fields provided or click on the View All Open Salary/Hourly Positions link to review a listing of all open salary or hourly positions.
- How do I apply online?
- Each job posting you view has an “ADD TO CART” button at the bottom that allows you to select multiple job openings for further review. When you select “ADD TO CART” you will move to the checkout page and all jobs selected will be listed. To review a description of a job from that list, click on the specific job title underneath the “Job Title” column. To speed-up the application process you are able to apply for all jobs on your list at one time. If a job(s) is listed and you do not wish to apply for that job, select the “REMOVE” button for that job(s).
To apply, select the “Respond to All Jobs in Cart” link. You will be taken to an application page. For both Salary and Hourly jobs please complete all required fields. Resumes can be entered directly or copied and pasted and are required for all salary jobs. For hourly jobs, a resume is not required but all required fields must be completed. Once you have entered and reviewed all required information, you can submit your application for consideration.
Once you click the “SUBMIT” button, your resume will become part of our searchable database. Submitting your application and resume more than once will NOT increase your chances of being contacted. We will contact you if your skills and qualifications match an open position.
- Do I need a resume to apply online?
- Hourly jobs will not require a resume when applying online. All Salary jobs require a resume when applying online.
- Why can't I submit my resume via U.S. Mail or fax?
- We receive thousands of resumes and paper submittals take much longer to process. Resumes received via our online response form reach the database almost instantaneously. You could miss the window of opportunity for an open position because of the processing delay.
- Why am I prompted to fill out additional information when I apply for some employment opportunities but not for others?
- These questions help us determine if you are a good match in the open position for which you are applying. Even if we determine that you are not a good match for the open position for which you are applying, your information will still be entered in our searchable database of resumes and may be considered for another potential open position.
- I'd like to be able to include a cover letter with my resume, addressed to the appropriate individual. How can I find out the name of the appropriate individual?
- All resumes are received in a central searchable database. They are sorted by job applied for and skill set. It is not necessary to address a cover letter to a specific individual. If you would like to include a cover letter, and a resume is required for the job, you can paste it in the resume text field below the text of your resume.
- How do I know if you received my resume via the online response form?
- Once you have submitted your resume, you will receive a confirmation message thanking you for your submission. The appearance of this message is your confirmation that we have received your expression of interest. If a problem occurs during the transmission of your submission, a message will appear with the error/reason for the problem. You will be asked to re-submit at that time.
- I submitted my resume through the online response form, but I'd like to mail it to you just to make sure you received it.
- If you received the confirmation message, you can be sure we received your submission. It is important to note that you should NOT enter your submission multiple times as this will NOT increase your chances of being contacted. The only time you should send us another copy of your expression of interest is if the submission includes updated information.
- I tried to submit my resume using the online response form but the Web page indicated there was an error. What should I do?
- If you are not using an Internet platform or Web browser supported by our online response form, you will need to upgrade your system and then revisit our site to apply online. Our online response form supports the following Internet platforms and Web browsers:
- IE 5.5 - 6.0 (on a Windows platform)
- Netscape Communicator 7.1+ (on a Windows platform)
- Firefox 1.02 on Mac OS X, XP
- Safari on Mac OS X
Please note: make sure you have JavaScript enabled and accept cookies on your Web browser.
- Will I be notified one way or the other if the job is filled or if I make it to the next step in the application process?
- If you received the confirmation message, you can be sure we received your expression of interest. If your skills and qualifications match what we are looking for, a representative from Human Resources will contact you. Due to the high volume of submittals, we will only contact those candidates whose skills and qualifications most closely suit our needs. It is important to note that you should NOT submit your expression of interest multiple times as this will NOT increase your chances of being contacted. In fact, submitting multiple times may result in resume processing delays. The only time you may choose to send us another copy of your expression of interest is if the submission includes updated information.
- How long are job postings generally on the Web site? Are they posted for a specific amount of time, or until the job is filled?
- A position remains posted on our Web site until that position is filled.
