If you want to apply for a civilian job in the
Navy, you will have a MAJOR bump in the road when you apply online. I have been trying to get established in the Navy website by building my resume, but when I reached step 6, the Navy website would not let me continue on to step 7. Step 7 is the Additional Data Sheet that includes information pertaining to citizenship and other vital information that applicants need to provide in order to apply to all jobs. This is not an optional step! So you must fill this section out in order to submit your application to any job. I used Safari, Google Chrome and Firefox and
NONE of them worked; none of them let me complete my application package. If you use these web browsers, you will not be able to fill out section 7.
***There is a technical glitch in the Navy website which will not allow people to apply online through any web browser, except Internet Explorer.
So, I repeat, do not use any other browser, other than INTERNET EXPLORER if you want to apply for a Navy job. A friend of mine just told me that the Navy help center told her that applicants must use Internet Explorer because their website will show error messages like this, which I got several times:
Bad Request (Invalid URL)
If you get this message like me, you will have to switch to Internet Explorer to finish your application. Also, you must unblock any ad block/pop-up features.
Hope this tip helps! Sure wish I had known this before I started applying!
