Apply On-line Frequently Asked Questions

Please also see our How to Apply Online documentation for more details on our Online Application Process.

What employment opportunities are currently available at Concentra?

To view a listing of employment opportunities, you need to search our job listings. You can choose to narrow down your search using the search fields provided or click on the View All button to review a listing of all jobs or search by State to view all jobs in your area.

How do I submit a resume?

Each job posting you view after searching our job listings will have a button at the bottom that will allow you to add to job cart or respond to a job in job cart. Once you are brought to the Apply Online form, a pop-up window will give you a choice to create a profile, which will allow you to store your resume, so you can easily edit, modify or respond to future openings or you may select cancel to just apply to the jobs in job cart. On the Apply Online form, be sure to choose a source, letting us know how you heard about us and fill in the other required information. Once you hit the submit button, your resume will become part of our searchable database. Submitting your resume more than once will NOT increase your chances of being contacted. We will contact you if your skills and qualifications match a position we are trying to fill.

What if I do not have a resume? Can I fill out an employment application?

No, at this time we do not have an employment application online. You may complete the Apply Online form as instructed in the above paragraph and type in your employment history and qualification in the resume text box. Your profile will be entered into our searchable database just as a resume would. We will contact you if your skills and qualifications match a position we are trying to fill.

What is a source and why am I required to select one?

The source lets us know where you saw the position advertised or where you heard about us. There are two source drop down menus that you are required to choose from when you submit a resume via our online response form. Please use the first drop down to choose from a list of high-level categories like Advertisements, Job Boards, Job Fairs, etc. Next, use the second drop-down menu to indicate the specific source, i.e. the name of the Advertisement, Job Board or Job Fair.

Why should I submit my resume via Online Submission?

We receive thousands of resumes and paper resumes 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 a position because of the processing delay.

How do I use the Refer a Friend link?

The Refer a Friend link allows you to send an email to a friend who may be interested in the job opportunity you are currently viewing.

Why am I prompted to fill out additional information when I apply for some employment opportunities but not for others?

If we have additional requirements for a specific position or need additional information from you, we will include these screening questions at the end of the submit resume page. These questions help us to determine if you are a good match for the position you are applying for. Even if we determine that you are not a good match for the particular position you are applying for, you will still enter our searchable database of resumes and may be considered for another position we are recruiting for.

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 database and 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 general cover letter, you can paste it in the resume text field after the text of your resume or if you are uploading your resume include it in your resume document.

What if a position I am interested in is not listed on the careers page? Can I submit a resume anyway?

Yes. You can use the My Career Center link on the search page to create a profile. Once you submit your resume once (whether for a specific position or not) you will be in our searchable database and may be considered for other positions other than the one you applied for. It is important to note that you should NOT submit your resume multiple times as this will NOT increase your chances of being contacted.

How do I know if you received my resume via the online response form?

Once you have submitted your resume, a pop-up window will appear thanking you for your submission and you will receive a confirmation email thanking you for applying to Concentra. If a problem occurs during the transmission of your resume, a pop-up window will appear with the error/reason for the problem. If you are experiencing difficulties, please e-mail Technical Support or call 1-800-291-7062.

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 resume. It is important to note that you should NOT submit your resume multiple times as this will NOT increase your chances of being contacted.

I tried to submit my resume using the online response form but the web page indicated that there was an error. What should I do?

Our online resume builder supports the following:

DESKTOP APPLICATIONS/SET UP
  • Microsoft® Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows NT, or Windows 2000® operating system.
  • 12 MB of memory recommended.
  • An Internet connection of 28.8 baud (dial up) or corporate LAN connection to the Internet.

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 your skills and qualifications match what we are looking for, a representative from HR will contact you. If you have created a profile and responded to a position, you may log in to My Career Center and view the status of the jobs you have responded to. It is important to note that you should NOT submit your resume multiple times as this will NOT increase your chances of being contacted. In fact, submitting your resume multiple times may result in resume processing delays.

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 on our website until it is filled.

How long will my profile remain in Concentra's searchable resume database?

Your profile will remain in our database for at least 2 years.
