An official offer of employment, for staff position, can only be made after HR has notified the Hiring Unit .
HR is responsible for extending all offers of employment for classified staff positions .
Be certain to inform HR of considerations concerning start dates or other issues about the position that may have emerged during the hiring process. A representative from HR will first contact the Hiring Unit to indicate that the approval is complete and that HR will now extend the offer. HR will then contact the successful candidate by phone. If the candidate verbally accepts the offer, HR will follow-up with a formal letter of offer. For professional positions , no formal offer of appointment may be issued before HR has called to indicate that the approval is complete.
