What is "Direct Apply" and how do I submit my application using this option on Job Bank?

"Direct Apply" is a feature that lets you submit your application directly on Job Bank for job postings that offer this option. You can choose to send either a resume you've uploaded or one you've created using the Resume Builder.     

Before you can use "Direct Apply", complete these steps:

Step 1 - Create a job seeker Plus account (or upgrade your Standard account).

Step 2 - Complete your job seeker profile.

Step 3 - Create a resume with the Resume Builder or upload your own resume.

 

How to apply using "Direct Apply"

You can apply in two ways, both directly from the job posting:

 

Option 1: Using the "Direct Apply" button

    1. Sign in to your job seeker Plus account and start your job search. 
    2. Look for job postings with the blue "Direct Apply" flag.
    3. Open the job posting and click the "Direct Apply" button.
    4. Choose the resume you want to send from the drop-down menu.
    5. Check the box that says: "I agree to share my resume and all the information it includes directly with this employer".
    6. Click "Apply on Job Bank". 

 

Option 2: Using the "Show how to apply" section

    1. Sign in to your job seeker Plus account and start your job search. 
    2. Look for job postings with the blue "Direct Apply" flag.
    3. Open the job posting and click "Show how to apply".
    4. Click "Direct Apply" and choose the resume you want to send from the drop-down menu.
    5. Check the box that says: "I agree to share my resume and all the information it includes directly with this employer".
