10.01.4 Recommending Hire
When a candidate has been selected, the hiring authority will prepare a written recommendation along with an Applicant Log and an Interview Log, to be sent through the various levels as applicable (i.e., supervisor, vice president) and to the President, who is the ultimate hiring authority. Upon Presidential approval, the hiring authority is authorized to make a verbal employment offer to the selected candidate. If the candidate accepts the offer, an official written notification is sent to the candidate through Human Resources. As the final responsibility in the hiring process, the hiring authority will send a letter to all other candidates informing them that the position has been filled. The hiring authority will send copies of these letters, along with the completed selection and hiring packet, including the PTR, resume application, and job description in an electronic format to Human Resources. Employment is not finalized until it is approved by the President. Other guidelines for advertising and filling vacant positions are available in Human Resources.
