Final Filing Dates and Open-Until-Filled Recruitments

After your department submits a requisition through the PeopleAdmin system, the Employment Consultant/Recruiter in HR will call the contact person in your department to discuss the recruitment and the open- until-filled recruitment process.

Note, applications will be available for review in the PeopleAdmin system as received, however applications will not be released by HR for a departmental employment action until the position has been posted for at least 10 business days.

Please refer to the relevant labor contract or Personnel Policies for Staff Members for posting requirements:

 Several factors may affect ongoing recruitment following the initial 10 business posting period. For some positions, it is difficult to attract a qualified applicant pool because of the nature of the position (e.g., specialized skills, working hours, salary issues, history of difficulty with recruitments. etc.). When working with your Employment Consultant/Recruiter, consider the dates your advertisements will be published, the impact of focused affirmative action recruitment efforts, positions that are difficult to recruit, etc.

If the department has not been successful with making a selection from the initial applicant pool released after the 10 day posting in the PeopleAdin system, a screen of the incoming applications can be conducted on a weekly basis until the department has made a hiring selection. Applications released on a weekly basis, but not screened due to an earlier selection can be recorded as not screened in PeopleAdmin system.

If a layoff applicant with preference or a campus employee identified for reassignment/special selection by Disability Management Services applies at any time during the recruitment process, the process for layoff referral is followed. No subsequent release and or screening of applications is permitted until layoff has cleared.

Once a selection is made, the department must initiate the hiring decision in the PeopleAdmin system following required approvals and consultation with the Employment Consultant/Recruiter in HR.
