CenterPoint Energy's eRecruiting System automatically assigns a Username to unregistered Visitors. If you specified your e-mail address when applying for a position and you try to register with that same e-mail address, you will receive the “E-mail already reserved” error. CNP employees will receive this message as well, if they have logged on as an external visitor and used their CenterPoint Energy e-mail, and not via the Employee Log On.

Complete the following steps in order to retrieve your Username and password.

External Applicants:

1. Select “Log In for Returning Visitors” from the Careers home page
2. Select “Password Forgotten”
3. Enter only your e-mail address and select “Submit Password”
4. Your Username and a new password will be sent to your e-mail address
5. Return to the Careers site and select “Log In for Returning Visitors”
6. Log in using your usename and password; you will be prompted to change your password
7. If you would like to change your Username, select “Change Username” once you have successfully logged in.

2. Enter your SAP eight-digit User id and select “Password Forgotten”
