STEP 1 - THE REQUISITION

Complete the necessary information in the online form - you will need the following:

• Requisition Title
• Reason for filling the vacancy

• Position Number.  **If you need a new position number or are modifying a current position for a requisition, please use the Position Initiation and Modification Form.
• Essential/On-Call Information
• Calendar, if applicable
• Strategy to Recruit Under-Represented Categories
• FTE
• Funding Information
• Job Description/Posting Information

Once all information is submitted the requisition will need to be submitted for review and approvals.  Once approved, it will be posted by an HR Staffing Partner within 24 hours to our website and HigherEdJobs.com.

STEP 2 - MANAGING AND PROGRESSING THE CANDIDATE POOL

At the direction of the Search Chair, Hiring Manager Assistant or Hiring Manager, applications can be reviewed.  Owners of the requisition will put together a search matrix to help determine qualified candidates based on posted job duties, qualifications and requirements.  Questions about this process should be brought up to the HR Staffing Partner, who can aid in this process.

It is the responsibility of the Hiring Manager or Hiring Manager Assistant to track all search progress, which includes indicating or marking candidates that will be progressing in the search, ensuring approvals are obtained PRIOR to engaging in that step: (1st Round Interview, Reference Checks, Final Candidate Selection, Offer, etc).  Once candidates are marked for next steps, a complete and updated matrix should be sent to the HR Staffing Partner to review and upload to the search record.

STEP 3 - JOB OFFER

STEP 4 - MONITORING THE ONBOARDING PROCESS

As part of the hiring process, HR has designed an electronic Onboarding process to help ensure the new employee completes required training and hire documents and is provided with information that will help them be successful in their new position.

Hiring Managers will be able to track an employee's progress through this process via the Onboarding (transitions) area in HCM Recruiting.
