Q. What is the difference between a flexible and regular employee?
A. There are two categories of NAF employment Regular and Flexible. A
flexible employee is guaranteed no hours; they can work anywhere from 0 – 40
hours in a work week. A regular employee can be guaranteed anywhere from 20 – 40
hours in a work week accruing sick and annual leave and are eligible for other
benefits such as life and health insurance, 401K, and retirement plan. A flex
employee does not accrue any sick or annual leave.
Q. Who can apply for a position with NAF?
A. Anyone can apply for work with NAF as long as they fit the following
criteria and requirements that are needed for the position that they are
applying for. You must be legally able to work in the US (work permit must be
provided). The minimum age requirement is 16. To work with any of the Youth
Services activities you must be 18 and a high school graduate. A position that
deals with the selling of alcohol you must meet the minimum age requirement for
the state of North Dakota.
Q. What are the different priority levels in employment preferences with
NAF?
A. Eligible and qualified military spouses have first priority (a copy of
spouses PCS orders must be provided in order for the preference to be
considered. Spouse Preference is not lost with the acceptance of a flexible
position. However, once you have accepted or declined a Regular category
position that has been officially offered to you, your spousal preference is
lost.) THP – Transitory Hiring Preference comes next then Veterans Preference
(not all veterans have preference, it will all depend on when the time was
served if a conflict or campaign was going on … a copy of your DD214 Member 4
will be needed to determine this.)
Q. How can I find what jobs are open?
A. NAF jobs are continuous open positions. That means we accept applications
for all positions all the time. When managers/supervisors have job openings they
pull applications from the applicant supply file in the Human Resource Office.
Applications are kept on file for 90 days with the option of extending the
application for an additional 90 days if you haven’t found employment. The staff
in the office will be able to let you know if there are positions that have an
immediate need, and we also advertise on the North Dakota Job Service web site.
