How to Apply for TPWD positions:

·         Please note for any TPWD position -  interview and hiring decisions are based on completed on-line TPWD State of Texas Application for Employment, not on résumés. This means you want to do the most complete, thorough job possible in completing the on-line TPWD State of Texas Application for Employment. Please see the “How to Apply” section at the bottom of this page for some ways on how to do this. Please note “How to Apply” suggestions are for both full-time jobs and Internships, too.  

·         To apply for TPWD positions: Complete the on-line TPWD State of Texas Application for Employment + attach to it any/all required documents in order to be considered for positions. Work history experience *must* be completed in the online application. The on-line TPWD State of Texas Application for Employment starts here, or https://www.governmentjobs.com/Applications/Index/tpwd - then Sign in to apply or, if you already have a Profile on this system, click on “Sign In” in upper right-hand corner.

o   Please consider using/adapting TPWD job description language to describe your work experience under “Work Experience – Duties” as well as “Additional Information - Certificates and Licenses,” “Additional Information - Skills,” and so forth.

o   If you have military service, you may also want to select “Military Service” section of “Supplemental Information” (in TPWD on-line application) to list Military Service accomplishments.

§  In terms of “jargon,” please consider using the language in each TPWD job you are interested in to describe your work experience under “Work Experience – Duties.”

§  Also consider listing Military Service honors/awards under “Honors & Awards” section of “Supplemental Information” and other areas as appropriate.

·         For anything you are unsure about, consider using “Miscellaneous” in “Supplemental Information” of TPWD on-line application.

·         Submit completed Application + attach any required forms and transcript(s) by 11:59PM CT/10:59PM MT on application deadline. Thank you.
