What is the difference between CARES and the current recruiting advertisement method?
CARES is an automated recruitment and referral system that Fish and Wildlife is incorporating for use to advertise all vacancies. Applicants will apply on-line where they will be required to answer numerous questions. There will be job related questions but there will not be any Knowledge, Skills and Abilities (KSAs) used. The CARES system will provide a listing of all applicants and their scores based on how the questions were answered. The HR office will then review the applications and send a certificate to managers electronically. It is anticipated that using CARES will result in a large increase in applications received.
