How will a department know if there are any priority candidates for the position?
Positions covered by the AFSCME contract must be advertised through Human Resources-Employment Services. At the end of the advertising period Employment Services will inform the department if there are any priority candidates. Positions not covered by the AFSCME contract, supervisory exempt or designated “confidential”, are not required to be advertised through Human Resources-Employment Services if the department plans to fill the position from its current permanent Merit staff. However, if you choose not to advertise the position, departments should contact Employment Services to inquire if there are priority candidates for the classification.
