J1 Application Procedures
I) Registration
First Step is to contact E-JAM’s office at 876-974-EJAM (3526), or email: jobs@employmentjamaica.com to make appointment to attend our registration/interviewing session. During the registration process you will be fully informed about the program and undergo a one-on-one pre-screening interview. Our goal is to seek candidates with a “can do” attitude and the potential to act as Ambassadors for Jamaica.
The following are required for registration:
- E-JAM’s signed Application including Terms and Conditions

- Two references on company’s letterhead; or, any favorable reference that will assist us in making a hiring decision
- Four (4) Passport size photographs (Please be sure to smile when taking your photograph)
Special arrangements can be made to mail in required documents and to do telephone pre-screening interview.
II) Application Processing
When applications are received in our office they are carefully reviewed, screened and uploaded in our database. At that time, the decision is made whether to accept or refuse an application; or whether more information is needed to determine acceptance. We will notify you of the status as it is reviewed. Applications will not be considered if there are missing paperwork.
You will be notified of available positions and given the option to select a first and second job choice. Please note that your chance of getting your preferred position and location is determined by how soon you apply. Once payment has been verified, E-JAM will present your application package to our sponsors/employers. Often times, employers, or sponsors will conduct their own interview, either by telephone, webcam, or in person.
