How to Apply

Thank you for your interest in the University of the Fraser Valley. To submit an application, follow these steps:

1

Create a separate application for each posting/competition

Clearly mark your application with the posting number

Each UFV job posting contains a unique posting number (e.g. #2016.xx).  Clearly marking your application with this number ensures your documentation is received and assembled together for a Selection Advisory Committee's review. (Please also provide the posting number to any References who may be submitting documentation to UFV on your behalf.)

Note: Although Human Resources accepts 'general applications' for employment (i.e,. not submitted for a specific job posting), we are unable to assess such applications for current or prospective opportunities. Instead, individuals should check UFV Careers site for updates for new opportunities of interest.
