When will the hiring freeze be over? If no date is fixed yet, what are the activities and target dates related to opening up the HR process again?
The vacancy control program that is in place will continue until the restructuring of UCOP is complete. This approach is not the same as a freeze on all hiring; vacancy control means that each new position or replacement hire will be carefully reviewed in light of our restructuring goals and the critical work that must continue to be done at UCOP. Positions that serve these needs have and will continue to be approved for recruitment. Department heads who have critical positions that need to be reviewed should consult with HR and with Provost Hume and EVP Lapp for approval.
