Open Recruitment is a competitive process that seeks a broad pool of qualified, diverse applicants and normally utilizes a search committee to screen, interview and identify a candidate for hire.

Campus-Only Recruitment may be used to fill positions if the classification is pre-approved for Campus-Only Recruitments.

A Certified Hiring Manager (CHM) interacts directly with the Recruitment Management System (RMS) to initiate requests, status applications and begin the job offer process. A Hiring Manager (HM) works through their Human Resources Service Team Representative (HRSTR) to accomplish these activities. A Hiring Manager who is interested in becoming a Certified Hiring Manager should contact the RMS System Administrator for information on the process.
