It is important that detailed information regarding education and experience is provided.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Effective immediately, all applications must be submitted electronically through the Lottery Career Center using the electronic Oregon Lottery Employment Application. The Lottery will no longer accept State of Oregon PD 100 forms or Lottery Internal Applications for positions with the Lottery.

Once an application is submitted, it is screened to determine if the candidate meets the recommended qualifications for the job. Given the large volume of applications received, the recruiters are unable to respond personally to all applicants, however e-mail notifications will be sent. If an applicant is selected for an interview, the recruiter will make contact and schedule the day and time for the interview.
Applicants are screened by Human Resources. The application materials are screened based on education and experience in relation to the recommended qualifications. After the initial screening, applicants who best meet the requirements of the job are referred to the appropriate hiring manager for further review and determination for interview.
Interviews at the Oregon Lottery are typically performed by a panel of supervisors or managers. Depending on the recruitment, a phone screen interview may be conducted. In person interviews may involve multiple rounds including less formal “meet the staff” interviews.
Hiring Managers identify and recommend candidates to proceed to the background investigation process based on the pre-employment process which includes items such as application materials provided, responses to screening questions, and the interview. The background check includes items such as fingerprinting, criminal history, credit history, tax records, driving record, affiliation with the gaming industry, and checking employment references and character references. The background investigation is conducted by Lottery Security personnel. Also, included is verification of education attained (diploma, certificate or degree). This process can vary in length, typically taking between 3 to 6 weeks.
Applicants not selected to proceed through the background investigation process are notified by e-mail, phone, or letter.
Please note: Because the Lottery believes in developing and retaining its employees, positions may be filled by current employees and as a result, every vacancy that occurs may not be opened to external candidates.
