Additional Hires

Departments may employ an alternate or additional hire from the original applicant pool if the original hire leaves employment within 30 days of the hire date.

No additional hires will be permitted to a position posted for a single opening or multiple openings if all positions have been filled unless one of the hire(s) is released within 30 days of the hire. If all hires are successful placements, the department will need to conduct a new search if an additional hire is necessary for staffing.


Department Responsibilities:

  • If the original hire leaves employment within 30 days of the hire date, the department may employ an alternate hire from the original applicant pool for the same job posting. You must first, however contact your Talent Acquisition Partner to discuss the additional hire.
  • For positions advertised as multiple hires, the department will need to clone the original position description in the PeopleAdmin system for Compensation/HR review and track the position description number for each vacant position associated with the open posting in the original position’s note field.

Talent Acquisition Responsibilities:

  • If the posting was advertised for multiple hires, the Talent Acquisition Partner will identify the hire by the position description tracking number provided by the department.
