Administrative w88 slot Process without a w88 slot Committee

The w88 slot is characterized by the hiring manager assuming the responsibility for all aspects of the w88 slot.

The hiring cycle, reporting structure, and hierarchical relationships are very different for academic and administrative w88 slot. The traditional search and recruitment process for administrative w88 slot is grounded in the academic model of shared governance and peer evaluation. The responsibilities of positions in administrative departments can be varied, and administrative departments do not have the same shared governance. Therefore, the process for recruiting and hiring administrative w88 slot may be different than for academic w88 slot. The appointing authority for the open administrative w88 slot position approves the type of search model for the recruitment.

Below are the minimum requirements for administrative searches. The hiring manager or appointing authority may involve additional input at any point during the process.

1. The Workday applicant is used for all searches.
2. The hiring manager may independently decide on the appropriate recruitment plan which must include:
   1. Posting the position on at least two advertising outlets in addition to the outlets provided by Human Resources. At least one of these sites must be diversity targeted.
   2. Consultation and/or discussion with the hiring authority, department and/or Human Resources regarding diversity recruitment and how to attract diverse candidates.
   3. The hiring manager is encouraged to engage department w88 slot/staff and human resources in the sourcing of candidates.
   4. All state-funded positions must remain open for a minimum of 4 weeks.
3. The hiring manager may independently review all applications and decide which candidates are selected for first interviews. Interviews must be approved by Human Resources.
4. The hiring manager may independently complete the first interviews and select candidates for campus interviews, which must include a minimum of two candidates unless waived by Human Resources.
5. The campus interview process must include the opportunity for a representative group of peers and/or constituents to meet with the candidates and provide feedback to the hiring manager.
6. Once the hiring manager has made a selection, an Offer must be routed in Workday.
