Internal Search Process

Overview

Administrative Guideline (Second Reading at Cabinet 2/12/24)

Internal Search Process for F/T and P/T positions:

  1. Hiring Authority, with approval of its Vice President, determines whether to utilize internal posting and will provide all relevant information to HR, including a Request to Post and job description.
  2. The posting period will be at least 7 working days (Hiring Authority can request a longer period).
  3. College employees will be made aware of the opportunity and process for consideration (e.g. Newsfeed, Workday, bulletin boards or other appropriate method of communication).
  4. Eligible "internal" employees generally include full-time Â鶹´«Ã½Ó³»­ employees and part-time Â鶹´«Ã½Ó³»­ employees (not Spherion or other non-Â鶹´«Ã½Ó³»­ employees). Employees with "interim" or "acting" in their job title are eligible. Unless specifically stated to the contrary herein, eligibility is governed by the College's Salary Schedule and College Rules.
  5. The committee process currently in place will be utilized for internal searches.
  6. At the end of the posting period, the Hiring Authority may decide to do a traditional search, in which case all internal applicants will remain in the pool without the need to reapply. The decision to do a traditional search may be made for many reasons and is not intended to indicate that the internal candidates are not qualified or that one of them will not be selected.
  7. At the end of the posting period, if the internal process is pursued, applications will be evaluated using the designated process.
    1. A reference check must be obtained from the current supervisor of the proposed candidate.
  8. If an internal candidate is selected, the Hiring Authority will submit a Request to Offer and Appoint.

Note: reclassifications/restructures are not handled through this process.
