Your application is part of the public domain

Malmö University is a public authority, which means that members of the public have the right to obtain official documents upon request, including your application and any other documents related to the recruitment. If you have a protected identity, make one of the contacts on the job listing aware in order to get more information on how to proceed.

Simplify the applications process with a user account

It is quick to create a user account. When you have an account, you no longer need to enter your personal details every time you want to submit an application. The account also offers an overview of your applications and any messages we have sent you via the system. The messages are also sent to your email address, so you do not need to monitor your account.

If you do not already have an account, you have two options:

Create an account with the same email address as the one you used in the application. When you have done this, you can edit your application when you log into the account. This is the recommended option.
Click 'Apply' in the vacancy notice and fill in the same email address as the one used in your application, as well as all the other required details. Your application will automatically be updated with this information.
You can also create an account at a later date. As long as you provide the same email address as the one used in the application, any previous information will appear in your account.

Updating your application

You can update your application for as long as the application period is open.

If you have an account, log in and click 'Edit' next to the link for the relevant application and make the changes you want. Confirm the changes by clicking 'Register'.

To make changes to an attached document, first update the document on your computer, then upload the new document. When you have uploaded the correct attachment, click 'Register' to update your application.

  • If you do not have an account, email any changes to the relevant human resources officer.
