Application Instructions

The State has an on-line application process. Go to azstatejobs.gov and do the following:

  1. Create an account - Click the Create An Account button and fill in the following information:
    • Login – Type in a name that is easy to remember. This login name cannot be changed.
    • Password – Type in a name that is easy to remember. This may be changed.
    • E-mail Address – Type in your e-mail address. If you do not have an e-mail account at work or home, you may get a free one at a variety of sites including mail.yahoo.com and hotmail.com.

    After you create an account, use the Login button to enter into the system for all future activity.

  2. Add Resume – Click this button to create your resume:
    You may either type in your resume or copy and paste it from an existing document. If you choose the copy and paste method, be aware that formatting changes may occur when azstatejobs.gov converts it from the current format to ASCII text. You may do the following to help avoid formatting changes:
    • Click on the Tips for formatting your resume link directly above the Resume box. Edit your current resume to conform to those tips before copying and pasting.
    • Convert your Word document to a text format before copying and pasting into azstatejobs.gov. Make the conversion by performing a “Save as” function on your Word resume and selecting the Plain text option in the “Save as type” field.

    Whether you convert your resume or not, be sure to proofread your resume and correct any formatting changes that occur after it is copied into azstatejobs.gov.
    Once you create the resume, the button changes from “Add Resume” to “Edit Resume”. Instantly update your resume any time by clicking this button and making changes.

    4. A screen appears showing all vacancies for the Office of the Attorney General. This screen shows the Job Title, Location, Date Posted, Salary, and Apply by Date.
