Another common question:

FAQ Image

Q: What happens to applications that are already in the review process? Will those applications still be processed?

A: Yes. Applications received before the published closing dates will be processed. Applicants who meet the minimum qualifications will be added to the register as part of the final register update in the current system. These registers will remain available to agencies for hiring purposes for a limited period during the transition to NeoGov. Once NeoGov launches, new registers will be established as job classifications are posted in the new system. Applicants interested in future job opportunities will need to create a NeoGov account and submit a new application at that time.

We’re with you every step of the way. With these FAQs, we strive to provide transparent, relevant information about the new job application platform and website as soon as it becomes available. Please continue to monitor our social media and website for information on job closings and the NeoGov launch. We appreciate your patience as we streamline for success and build a faster, better job application platform for the State of Alabama!


New Application System FAQ

A common question

SPD FAQ 1 image

Q: If I’m already on a register, will I need to reapply?

A: Yes. As part of the conversion to NeoGov, new registers will be established to support recruitment and hiring through the new system. Applicants will therefore need to reapply for job classifications as they become open for application. Once NeoGov goes live, applicants will more easily be able to view the status of their applications and apply for multiple jobs.

New Website and Job Application System Coming in October!

Applying for jobs with the State of Alabama is about to get much easier!

New website news announcement

In late October we will be launching NeoGov, our new and modern application portal, alongside a brand new website!

NeoGov’s job application platform is already used successfully across dozens of states and many local entities here in Alabama. We expect our applicants will feel right at home with a familiar, easy-to-use job application platform.

Before the new platform launches, here are some things you should know:

Job classifications will be temporarily closing as we move to the NeoGov system.

Applicants will need to create a new profile in NeoGov once the new system launches. Before October 14, applicants are encouraged to log in to their current Online Employment System (OES) account and save or copy any information they may want to use when creating their new NeoGov profile.

Once NeoGov goes live, applicants will be able to quickly set up a new account and apply for open positions.

We’ll be providing frequent updates. Please continue to monitor our social media and website for information on job closings and the NeoGov launch. We appreciate your patience as we streamline for success and build a faster, better job application platform for the State of Alabama!
