In addition to the application, a cover letter, resume and copy of transcript(s) (if the position requires a degree) are required.

Once employment applications are received and reviewed in Human Resources to ensure completion and that minimum requirements are met by the applicant, they are forwarded to the hiring supervisor for screening and determination of those applicants who will be contacted for an interview. After interviews and reference checks are completed, the hiring supervisor identifies the candidate considered as the best match for the position and makes a recommendation for hire through the appropriate Vice President.
Will I be notified when the position has been filled?

Who receives my employment application?
When you submit your adjunct application to IRSC, Human Resources forwards it to the appropriate instructional department(s) based on the discipline(s) of interest indicated on the IRSC Application for Certification as well as on the Adjunct Faculty Data Form.
What transcripts will I need to submit, and when should I order them?
Photocopies of transcripts must be received with an adjunct applicant’s application. If an applicant is selected for certification, he or she will be required to have official transcripts forwarded to IRSC. To be considered "official,” these transcripts must be received by the Human Resources Department directly from the institution attended. Transcripts provided by the applicant in a sealed envelope are not considered official. Official transcripts are required in accordance with the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS) in order to issue the IRSC teaching certificate.
If you wish to expedite IRSC certification, you have the option of requesting that official transcripts be sent from your educational institutions to IRSC as soon as your application has been submitted.
I turned in my employment application for an adjunct position. Why have I not had any response?
Once your application is processed by the Human Resources Department, it is forwarded to the instructional department(s) for the discipline(s) indicated. Applications are reviewed for current and foreseeable needs.
I already have a state teaching certification. Do I need to do more?
All full- and part-time faculty at IRSC must complete the IRSC teaching certification process in order to teach at IRSC. The state teaching certification utilized in the K–12 arena is not applicable at the college level.
I turned in my application for a posted adjunct position, but when I contacted the department, I was told there was not an opening available.
The adjunct disciplines posted on our website are listed with an ongoing need in order to build an adjunct applicant pool, and there may or may not be a current opening at any given time. The department reviews applications and contacts applicants for interviews when there is a need in the classroom.
I have never taught but would love to teach. Would I be considered as an adjunct without prior teaching experience?
Prior teaching experience is preferred but not a requirement for some of our positions. Refer to the position descriptions to review the qualifications, skills and requirements for the discipline(s) of interest. Some instructional areas that require one year of prior proven teaching experience are the college preparatory areas of Developmental Education and the Educational Preparation Institute (EPI).
What do you mean by “getting certified” to teach at IRSC? How does that happen?
