Vacancy listings include the position number, position title, FTE, shift, salary range, minimum qualifications, application deadline, and any special requirements of the job. PRD applications may be downloaded from the Employment section of our web site or picked up from a personnel satellite office or the Central Employment Center. Applicants who are most competitive will be referred to the department. After reviewing the skills, work history, and education of each referred applicant, the department will coordinate interviews and make a hiring decision. Salary levels upon appointment are determined by the hiring authority and appropriate budgetary approving authority for the hiring department.
Promotions carry pay increases to at least the minimum of the salary range for the higher title.
In the USPS pay plan, a probationary period is required each time an employee enters a classification in which he or she previously has not held permanent status. A permanent USPS employee who is promoted but fails to complete the required probationary period satisfactorily for the new classification will be advised in writing as soon as possible that his or her performance is unsatisfactory and that he or she will not attain permanent status in the class. In addition, the current department should provide the employee with 90 days to seek employment within the university. Your department must contact your personnel satellite office prior to initiating this action.
