These Forms are distributed to various locations on and off campus and serve as a public announcement of a vacancy with the Research Foundation. It describes the basics of the position, where to submit employment applications and closing dates. Research Foundation Employment Application A completed Employment Application is required for all applicants interviewed for any position and any new employment. Under certain circumstances the formalized recruitment process can be waived. In consultation with the Director, Sponsored Funds Administration and the Director, Affirmative Action and University Ombudsman, the project director may determine that time limits and urgency to fill a position require that we condense the recruitment period or appoint without a search.
Approvals are on an exception basis.
Records Retention All recruitment files should be maintained for three years. Sponsors and federal regulatory agencies reserve the right to review records as appropriate. Because of the nature of sponsored program activity, all positions with the Research Foundation are terminable at will. Again, because of the nature of project activity, there are no bargaining units or permanent appointments for Research Foundation employees.
