How to apply

The Gateshead Housing Company do NOT accept CVs

Applying Online

You can apply online for any of our vacancies.

  • Before you complete the online job application form, you should make sure that you have all of the necessary information at hand to complete it.
  • When you start an online application, you will be asked to provide a username and password. Make a note of these as you will need them to return later if you wish to make any changes or review what you have entered.
  • The application form is spread over two pages (three pages for teaching posts). When you move from one page to the next, what you have entered so far will be automatically saved. In addition, each page has a 'save application' button, which can be pressed at any time to save what you have entered up to that point. In this way you can end your session whenever you wish and return later to complete your application.
  • Apart from your name and the first line of your address, none of the fields on the forms are mandatory. This is consistent with the paper based application process. There may be information which you do not wish to give to us. In some cases, such as your experience/qualifications, this may prevent your application from being considered further. You should take time to review and confirm the contents of your forms before you submit them.
  • Should you require an electronic acknowledgement of receipt of your application, you should provide us with your e-mail address in the 'review before submission' page.
  • If at any point during the application process you wish to go back to a previous page, press the 'go back' button which is to be found at the foot of each page.

The online application process

  • When you complete the equal opportunities form and application form, you will be presented with a final page to review their contents. At this point you can submit them for consideration. The forms are sent to Human Resources of The Gateshead Housing Company. Once received, your application will be processed in the same way as all other applications received by The Gateshead Housing Company.
  • Once the forms have been submitted you will no longer be able to make any changes, although you will be able to return at a later date and read what you have entered. If you feel you may want to make changes to you application, you do not need to submit it at this point; you can come back another time and do this.
  • On submission of the forms you will be asked to confirm that, as far as you know, all the information you have given is correct. Your acceptance of this constitutes an electronic signature.
