How to Apply for Texas Lottery Employment Opportunities

Thank you for your interest in employment with the Texas Lottery. Lottery and Bingo Division job openings are posted on our website at https://www.texaslottery.com/export/sites/lottery/About_Us/Employment_Opportunities/current_job_postings.html.

State of Texas applications may be submitted electronically through the Texas Workforce Commission's workintexas.com online system by the closing date stated on the job posting. Applications may also be downloaded through TDLR's website: https://www.tdlr.texas.gov/careers/ and emailed to jobs@lottery.state.tx.us or faxed to 512-344-5240. For applications submitted via email or fax, please list the job posting title and job posting number in the subject line. Applications submitted via email or fax must be received by 5:00 p.m. of the posting's closing date. All job postings are identified by a specific job title and job posting number. If you are interested in applying for more than one position, you must submit a separate application for each position. When a job posting is listed as "Open Until Filled", it is best to apply as quickly as possible, as the posting may close or be placed on hold at any time with or without prior notification. 

You will not be considered as an applicant if you submit a resume or letter of interest without submitting a State of Texas application. A resume in lieu of application will be rejected. Additionally, an application with “see resume” within the summary of experience is considered incomplete and will be rejected. Please do not attach documents that contain a photo. Please be aware that additional information or documents will not be accepted for purposes of determining eligibility after the closing date. Submit a copy of degree/transcripts if in lieu of experience/skills requirement. To receive Military Employment Preference for any position, submit a copy of the DD214 or DD1300 with application.

All applicants must submit a thoroughly completed application, answering all applicable questions.  Applications must contain complete job histories, which includes job title, dates of employment, name of employer, supervisor's name and phone number and a description of duties performed. If this information is not submitted, your application may be rejected and will not be considered because it is incomplete.  

Applicants are solely responsible for timely delivery of applications by the deadline.

Applications will NOT be accepted via mail or hand delivery.

Instructions for Completing the Online State of Texas Application for Employment

All applicants should submit a thoroughly completed State of Texas application, answering all applicable questions.  Review the job posting and be careful to note any education, certificates, licenses, training, or specific experience/skills required for the position. 

Be specific and detailed when providing information in the employment and education sections.  Include all employment.  Begin with your current or last position and work back to your first.  The employment history should be included for each position held, even those with the same employer.  List each position separately and indicate the dates for each position held.  In order to receive full credit for employment experience, include the month/day/year of starting and leaving dates.  When specifying hours worked per week, you must indicate the standard or average hours worked in order to be given credit for work experience.  If this information is not submitted, your application may be rejected because it is incomplete.

The information included in the employment section of the application will be the official record of your employment experience.  It must accurately reflect all significant duties performed.   

Qualified applicants selected for interviews will be contacted by the hiring division. If you are scheduled for an interview and require any reasonable accommodation in the interview process, please inform the hiring representative who calls you to schedule your interview. Whenever possible, please give the hiring representative sufficient time to consider and respond to your request.

All candidates for lottery and bingo divisions recommended for a position will be subject to an extensive criminal background investigation, including fingerprinting. Only applicants interviewed will be notified of their selection or non-selection.  Inquiries regarding the status of an application will be answered as time and agency resources allow.
