Using PeopleAdmin to Hire
As you are aware from previous communication, the Office of Human Resources implemented PeopleAdmin, a new Online Applicant Tracking System in 2015. The new service streamlines University recruitment and provides new technology to simplify the recruitment process. It has replaced paper applications and makes applying for a job easier for job seekers and faster for hiring managers.
The Office of Human Resources does not accept paper requisition forms for PIN and Contingent II Staff positions. Hiring managers will be, therefore, required to use the PeopleAdmin System.
