2. I lost my user ID and password, how do I get it?
    Please make sure you go to the 'Forgot your User ID and/or password? Click here.' section at
    the bottom of the login screen. Once there, you will get 2 different options to recover your
    User ID and/or Password. The system has the ability to e-mail your login information
    immediately to the e-mail address you entered on your application.

    If your e-mail address has changed, please contact us at 770-426-3342 to update your
    contact information. If necessary, please make sure you update your e-mail address on your
    application next time you log into the STAR system.

3. I previously completed a classified application to apply for paraprofessional
    positions, do I need to fill out the new paraprofessional application?
    Yes. In an effort to make your application process more efficient we have implemented a new
    paraprofessional application as part of our STAR system. This application is for paraprofessional
    positions only.

    Please visit http://www.cobbk12.org/hr/employment and update your file by completing the
    paraprofessional online application. Your classified application's data will be transferred to this
    new application but you will need to step through the whole application the first time you go into
    it prior to submitting it.

    You may still apply for other classified positions on the classified application.

4. What is the application/employment process?
    ▪  Apply Online
    ▪  All applications are reviewed to determine if the applicants meet the minimum requirements
       for the position(s) applied for.
    ▪  References are completed electronically with supervisors supplied by the applicant.
    ▪  When a vacancy occurs, the hiring administrator selects applicants from among the qualified
       persons and conducts interviews. Applicants are interviewed in the school/division where the
       vacancy exists. After the interviews, the administrator makes an employment
       recommendation to Human Resources. If selected, you will be contacted by a HR
       Supervisor/Manager.

5. Will I be contacted for a job interview?
    First, we review your application. If you are qualified for a position(s), your application will be
    referred to the principal or supervisor with the vacancy. The principal/supervisor may or may
    not contact you for an interview. Due to the large volume of qualified applicants, not
    everyone referred to the principal or supervisor will be interviewed.

6. What is the status of my application?
    You will receive an e-mail upon submission of your application to confirm receipt. If you meet
     the qualifications for the position(s) for which you applied, your name will be referred to hiring
     officials. While your application is active, hiring officials will also be able to query and find your
     application if your skills meet their needs.

7. How can I confirm my current supervisor has completed and returned the
    electronic reference form?
    Go to the main website: www.cobbk12.org. Click on 'Employment, select option to 'Update an
    existing application', select option 'Have you already registered or applied?'. Log in by entering
    your User ID & Password. At the bottom of the next screen, select 'Check reference status' link.
    If your references have not completed the Electronic reference form which was sent to their
    e-mail address, verify their e-mail address is accurate and/or contact your reference directly
    to confirm they received the reference form and it is not in their spam folder. Once the
    application process is complete, we have all the information we need to consider you for
    employment.

8. I submitted an application, but have not yet heard back. Who should I contact?
    Unfortunately, due to the large volume of applications we receive, we are unable to respond
    personally to all applicants. Should your qualification match our staffing needs, we will contact
    you directly.
