To continue to explore your career opportunities with Newell, we would love for you to use Search Jobs for open opportunities and to set up Job Alerts for future opportunities.

Didn’t I do this already? What Happened to my Old Profile?

In the Summer of 2024, Newell's Talent Acquisition process transitioned to a new Career Portal. Due to compliance with regulations around the globe, Newell did not take any action to move or use any person’s personal data in a new system without that user’s Data Privacy Consent. Any candidate looking to apply for an open job posting with Newell starting in late July 2024 will need to complete a new Profile directly in the system. Candidates in progress during the transition will have received an invite to reapply to the open position they were on, and continue the recruitment process. Other profiles from the old database will be removed for protection of user’s personal data shortly after the new system is live.

When you log into Newell Careers for the first time in this new system, you will need to Create an Account to set up your Profile as mentioned above. You can do this by clicking View Profile and Applications in the upper right corner of the different dashboard pages. Opening the View Profile and Applications page will take you to a log-in screen. Click Create an account below the Sign In button. If you have already Create an account, you can log-in at this same page.

This process to create your account will take you into Newell Careers to your Profile as well as the Application Dashboard.

Note: There are several mandatory fields notated by the red asterisk (*). The most common Review and Accept Data Privacy Consent Statement at the very bottom of the form. You must select a Country/Region of Residence to be routed to the appropriate Data Privacy Content for your Region.

You will get a pop-up window with a link to the online Data Privacy Consent to review and Accept or Decline. If you Accept, you can now complete your Profile creation on the original form. However, if you choose to decline, you will receive a new alert that Declining will permanently delete your account and remove all information from the system, including withdrawing you from any jobs you have already applied to (see images below).

Unable to Create an Account

If you are unable to create an account, make sure you have clicked on the link for the data privacy statement link and accepted it. Also, make sure that all required fields have been filled in.

How do I change my password?

Go to the Career Site Home Page and click on the My Profile and Applications link to sign in. After signing in, click on the link that says Go to the Career Site Home Page and click on the My Profile and Applications link to sign in. Click on the "Options link at the top of the page, then click "settings".

I can’t remember my password. What do I do?

For security purposes, Newell Brands employees cannot provide you with your password and do not have the capability to reset your password. Please use the “Forget your password” link on the sign-in page.

If you are not receiving a reset password email link, please check your spam/junk mail folder. If you are unable to locate your reset password link, you will need to create a new account with a new, unique email address.

What if I don’t want to apply online or I do not have an email account?

All applicants are required to apply online. If you do not have a computer, consider visiting your local library or using a mobile device.

Newell Brands requires an email account for applying for a job. In most cases, communications will be sent to you via email. If you do not have an email address, you can obtain a free email account at Gmail, Yahoo, or Hotmail. If you choose to create a free email account, do so at your own discretion and exercise appropriate security caution. We do not endorse, maintain, or secure Gmail, Yahoo, or Hotmail sites.

What is the difference between my Profile and an Application?

On Newell Careers, you will notice certain features mention your Profile and others mention your Application(s).

Profile: Your profile is the static account within Newell Careers that allows you to make changes to your personal details, work history, education, and other relevant personal information. Most roles will require a completed Profile to submit an Application. But your Profile only needs to be created one time, and then should only require occasional updates for future Applications.

The more complete the Candidate Profile section is, the faster your Application processes will go. Whether you choose to add a resume, or build out your work history, educational background, and licenses and certifications manually is up to you. However, you will be required to do at least one or the other.

Attaching an updated resume is always recommended, as it also makes your profile more likely to show up in searches by Recruiters at Newell for future opportunities.

Application(s): Your applications are your submissions of interest to a specific job posting, which uses the information from your Profile to auto-populate information and minimize the amount of time and effort needed when applying to multiple positions now and/or in the future.

How do I know my application was received and that I applied successfully?

You should receive an email when you apply. If you do not receive a confirmation email within 15 minutes, check your Junk mail folder or log into your account and view the "Jobs Applied".

If you do not see your job listed under JOBS APPLIED, click on the "Saved Applications" section to see if you have an in-process application. Make sure when you complete your application you click the SUBMIT button at the bottom of the application.

If the job in question is not listed, go back to "Job Search" to re-start the application process.

What happens after I submit my application and resume in the system?

Your application will be reviewed by the recruiter and/or the hiring manager. You will be contacted directly if you are selected for the interview process.

Application Status and Existing Applications-How do I find out if I am still being considered for a job that I applied for?

Visit the Career Site Home Page. Click on the My Profile and Applications link to log in. On your profile page, you will see a link for "Jobs Applied". Your current application status will be listed in the box with the job title.

North America Only: I received a request to input my National ID and Date of Birth, but the link doesn’t seem to work?

When your Application was moved into Offer Accepted, the email you received to input your National ID (Social Security Number in the US and Social Insurance Number in Canada) and your date of birth was automatically sent to you for completion. If you click the link and it does not take you to a screen to input the information, your application was moved further in the process too quickly by the recruiter. Contact your recruiter and let them know your Application needs to be set back to Offer Accepted North America for you to input your information.

I already got an offer, why am I being asked to reapply for the same job?

In situations where our team is hiring numerous positions that are identical, often at the factory locations, we will only post one. However, for compliance purposes, Newell requires everyone to apply for the job which they are hired. Upon getting the offer, you are moved to a new job in the system for the hiring process and this requires you to apply for that specific job.

Fortunately, the Profile and prior Application will auto-fill nearly all of the fields, and this should be a very quick and simple process.

My application won’t submit, or it tells me I need to complete required fields. What do I do?

• If you are on the application, click on the APPLY button and verify that all required fields are complete (marked with a red *).

• If there is a text box and the information is not applicable, just enter "N/A" or "Not Applicable" in the box. You may have to scroll down the page to see all questions.

• When you are creating your account, make sure you click on the link to the Data Privacy Statement and click ACCEPT.

• If you are being prompted to enter dates, make sure you use the calendar pop up rather than entering dates into the box.

• Enter any required dates in the formats indicated.

How do I withdraw my application?

Visit the Career Site Home Page then click on the My Profile and Applications link to log in. Once logged in, locate your Jobs Applied, click on the job and at the bottom, there will be a link to withdraw application.

Can I submit an application without applying for a specific job?

While it is always best to apply directly to a position, we welcome everyone to Join our Talent Community and create an account and a profile. Once you have a profile in our system, you can add your resume and other information. You will then be searchable by our recruiters in the database.

Do I need to re-apply each time I see a job that I'm interested in?

Yes. You need to apply directly for each job you are interested in, however much of your information will already be in the system, so applying the next time will be a much quicker process!

Can I submit different resumes and cover letters to different jobs that I apply to?

Yes, you can attach a new resume and/or cover letter with each application you submit. After you click "Apply", you can use the delete (garbage pail) button on the resume and cover letter boxes to delete the existing document and add a new document ("+" sign) specific to that job.

Can I make changes to an application I already submitted?

You are not able to change a submitted application, you may, however, update your candidate profile at any time by visiting Career Site Home Page, clicking on the My Profile and Applications link; to log in and update your profile.

If I have a criminal record can I still apply?

You can still apply--please be sure to be honest on your application. Many jobs at Newell Brands require various forms of background checks.

Is drug screening included in the interviewing process?

Drug screening is not included in the interview process, but drug screening is required as part of on-boarding and pre-hire activities for certain jobs.

What if I was sent an Invite to Apply?

If you have been invited to apply manually by an internal employee, you will receive a notification with a Subject line: “Action Required – Complete your Application for [job title]”. Click the blue hyperlink next to Password: to go to the website, and create your personal password for your account. Here you can complete your candidate Profile to start the application process.

If you wish to apply to other jobs as well, as discussed in the section above, the next step is to finish the Application to a specific opportunity. Once you are in the Newell Careers Dashboard, at the top of the page, you will see the word Careers in the menu bar, or you can use the Search Bar on the landing page. Search for open jobs in order to apply to the position of interest. If you do not find one at that time, you can save your search criteria and/or to set up alerts for future positions that are posted by the Newell Recruiting Team.

If you are working directly with an Internal Employee, you can notify them you have completed your Profile, and they can add you to the Requisition manually.

What if I was referred to a job?

If your information was added to the Newell system as a referral by an internal employee, you will receive a notification with a Subject line: “Action Required – Complete your Referred Application for [job title]”. Click the blue hyperlink next to Password: to go to the website, and create your personal password for your account. Here you can complete your candidate Profile to start the application process.

How can I update or delete my resume and/or cover letter?

You can attach a new resume and/or cover letter with each application you submit.

If you would like to remove or replace an existing resume or cover letter on your PROFILE,go to the Career Site Home Pageand click on the My Profile and Applications link to sign in. Once signed in, click on the MY DOCUMENTS link to edit your resume or cover letter. Changing the documents on your profile will NOT update previously submitted applications.

How does keyword search work?

Enter a list of words, and SuccessFactors will search for them in the job title, or you can choose to search for them in the job title and within the job description. It will find results for any words listed in the search:

Results beginning with words searched will also be returned. Ex: A search for “Manage” will return “manage, manager, management” etc.
To find an exact phrase, surround your search phrase with double quotes (” “). Ex: “senior manager”, or check ‘Exact match’.

Advanced search:

Use AND, OR, NOT, and () to combine search terms. Ex: Sales AND engineer finds only jobs that have both terms.
Sales OR engineer finds all jobs that have either.
(Sales AND Engineer) NOT Manager finds jobs that contain both “Sales” and “Engineer” but not “Manager”.
Use question mark (?) for an unknown letter. Ex: Thomps?n finds Thompson, Thompsen, Thompsan, etc.
Use tilde (~) to find similar spellings. Ex: roam~ finds roam, roams, room, road, roads, etc.
Do not use advanced search options if you have checked ‘Exact match’.

What is a Saved Search / Alert (Job Alert)?

When on Newell Careers, you may not always find a job posting that meets your interest or experience level. To prevent missing future job postings that are a better fit or needing to log in to the system as often, you can set up Job Alerts to email you directly when a job posting meeting your interests is available. You can set them up to be as broad or specific as you like using a combination of the following filters.

Email timing

Daily, Weekly, Every Two Weeks, or Never

Note: To avoid unwanted or unhelpful emails when there are no openings that meet your criteria, you can check the box below the Email Me drop down to only receive emails at that cadence when there is a new job that is available. This can be very helpful when you are searching for rare or very niche job posting that may not show up often. You can then set to the shortest daily cadence, with “only when new,” and always be up to date as soon as a posting is available.

Keywords: Either specific to a just the job title or anything in the job title and job description

More detail below on how to use Keyword search at an advanced level

Requisition Number: if you are searching for a specific job from a prior search or someone referring you to the role, you can use the Requisition Number associated with that job posting.
