*Under "My Account", select "Job applications".
*You will then be able to "Retrieve application" and make any necessary modifications.
You must ensure that you re-submit your application prior to the deadline. If you do not resubmit your application, it will not be considered.

== '''What are language requirements and how and when will I be tested for it?''' ==
<big>Official Language requirements are considered essential qualifications; therefore, candidates must meet the language requirement of the job. If your candidacy moves forward in the selection process, you may be required to be tested in your second official language based on the linguistic requirements of the position.
Note that if you apply for English only or French only positions, you may not require testing
If you apply for multiple positions with different language requirements, and you fail Official Language testing, you can still be considered for the positions that do not require both languages, e.g., if you apply for both English only positions and bilingual imperative positions, but fail the Second Language Evaluation in French, you can still be considered for English only positions.</big>
