On May 7, Human Resources will begin accepting hiring requests from departments. Departments can list specific preferences in their requests that will be included in the posting. Career advancement jobs can be filled faster. Because employees are notified about openings via e-mail, departments can begin reviewing referrals right away. Pools will contain highly qualified, pre-screened candidates with the skills necessary to succeed in the job and who will need less training because they are experienced in UNM policies and procedures.
Departments can choose whether to use a career advancement pool for an opening.
If they prefer to consider external applicants, internal applicants with comparable qualifications will be given preference. If the pilot program is successful, more job titles will be added to Career Advancement. Only newly created jobs are excluded. However, the job titles available for career advancement may change based on OEO utilization. If employees need assistance in obtaining an e-mail account, CIRT and the Staff Services Office can help.
