Application status frequently asked questions

I've created a profile: Now what?

Now that you have an applicant profile set up, you can submit an application for any open position at the CTA. You can return to your profile to check on the status of your submitted applications and search for new positions.

How do I check the status of my application?

Application statuses are updated and reflected on the Applicant Status page in the application system. This page will display a status for all submitted applications.

What do the online statuses mean?
