Recruitment, Selection and
Appointment Processes
Selection of classified
staff will be made in compliance with state and federal law and
as prescribed by the Ohio Constitution, to include “merit and
fitness examination” processes that mirror appropriate best/next
practices of private sector businesses and institutions of
higher education. Recruitment, selection and appointment
processes should consider the following factors, which are mere
examples and not an all inclusive list:
-
Development of
written position descriptions that include essential job
functions, required experience and education;
-
Guidance on
appropriate recruitment and job posting processes;
-
Screening and
comparison of applications to position requirements;
-
Structured
interviews of qualified candidates;
-
Use of valid forms
of testing, where appropriate, including simulation tests of
key job functions;
-
Background checks,
to include checking of references; and
-
A commitment to
affirmative action consideration in employment and
advancement of veterans of U.S. Armed Forces and to
individuals representing the diversity needs on our
respective university campuses.
