- Applicant Pool:
- There are considerations to be given to the potential pool of applicants relative to diversity goals. These items should be discussed with HR. Generally, when attempting to fill a position, a manager should consider candidates from a pool of applicants. A manager should not stop recruitment efforts after locating just one good candidate. A manager should attempt to develop a diverse applicant pool & and make a decision from among several good candidates against job related criteria. (One applicant does not make a “pool”.)
- Current Employees:
- Valparaiso University employees who work in other campus departments and want to be considered for the vacancy and have not been in their current jobs for at least 6 months are expected to receive approval from their current supervisor to apply.
- Applications:
- All applications are stored & tracked in SilkRoad, as is legally required. Therefore, if a department receives a resume from a different source, it is critical that the department directs the applicant to formally apply and submit their resume through SilkRoad via the University’s website.
