Class 1 Staff Talent Acquisition SOP Rutgers-Camden |Office of Human Resources 2
PROCEDURE:
1. The process begins when the department determines either through addition to
staff or replacement of staff that a position is open.
2. The Department will:
a. Complete a Class 1 Classification and Recruitment Form (CARF). This form is designed to ensure that the essential functions of a position are determined prior to the position being posted or recruited. The form is also designed to identify the scope of authority and breadth of complexity of duties and must be completed in its entirety before being submitted into the Recruitment, Onboarding, and Classification System (ROCS) system.
b. Update and submit an organizational chart for their department; this is
added to the posting for the record, but not for the public to view. All of this information must be sent to Rutgers University-Camden Human Resources (RUC-HR) at [email protected].
3. RUC-HR will:
a. Meet with the department to review and discuss:
i. Job duties; key duties and essential functions of the position. ii. Posting specific questions; questions loaded into the recruiting system
that establishes a minimum threshold for applicants to meet in order to pre-qualify them for the position.
iii. Search evaluative criteria; further information used in the recruiting system to identify a minimum threshold for applicants to meet.
iv. Search committee; though not mandatory, this is used as a best practice when interviewing candidates that work collaboratively with other departments.
v. Assign Applicant Reviewers in ROCS; designations in the recruiting system for those who are involved with the position search.
vi. Interviewing techniques and questions; designed to elicit legal and pertinent information from all candidates for a given position.
vii. Posting sites; choose the sites that best fit the goals of the campus and department’s diversity plan.*
viii. Affirmative Action Process/obligations; ensures the department knows and understands legalities and obligations of the process.
ix. Internal applicant process (pre-postings, interviewing obligations, etc.); ensure department understands its legal obligations to union employees.
At this time, the CARF is reviewed with the department to ensure it meets the parameters of the class designation, paygrade and title.
Class 1 Staff Talent Acquisition SOP Rutgers-Camden |Office of Human Resources 3
b. Begin the ROCS approval process to post the job, which includes reviewing
the CARF and organizational chart to ensure compliance, loading the documents, and building the posting.
c. Send the position to “budget review” for approval; it is sent back to RUC-HR for final review and posting, either internally or externally.
d. Provide instructions to the department on how to review and move applicants along the workflow within ROCS.
4. The Department will:
a. Review applicants, identify candidates that fit their need and meet the posted
qualifications. They can also schedule interviews – either with a search committee or as the lone decision maker.
b. Once a final candidate is identified, send the candidate’s name, start date, and salary, along with all applicants interviewed, to RUC-HR so the position can be closed out in ROCS.
c. Reach out directly to those candidates that interviewed – perhaps with a phone call or personalized letter, once the position is accepted.
5. RUC-HR will:
a. Prepare the offer letter and send it to the candidate on behalf of the
department, copying the hiring manager. We can also include a cover letter from the hiring manager that appropriately welcomes the finalist to Rutgers University-Camden.
b. Close out the position in ROCS once the position is accepted. Closing out the job will automatically inform candidates that were not interviewed that the position has been filled.
c. Send fully executed offer letter to department once received from candidate.
d. Schedule a time and meet with the employee to complete the hiring process including all mandated paperwork (I9, pertinent new hire information for HCM, etc.) and schedule the new hire’s orientation.
e. Work with all new hires to complete their State Health Benefits Program benefit paperwork (either enrolling or waiving) to ensure compliance and a smooth enrollment. This paperwork is reviewed upon completion and submitted to University Human Resources to be entered into HCM and then on to processing with the state.
Class 1 Staff Talent Acquisition SOP Rutgers-Camden |Office of Human Resources 4
6. The Department will:
a. Be responsible for processing any payroll actions. For questions regarding
payroll, please contact the shared services center at 856-225-2662.
b. As a best practice, meet with the newly hired employee to review other pertinent information such as schedule, departmental policies, establish goals and review objectives and other practices (such as calling out and break times), the CARF, performance expectations, service excellence, FLSA designation, overtime and compensatory time and the like.
c. As a best practice, meet with staff members to solidify the welcome and
ensure they make themselves available for any questions or concerns. *Note on Ensuring Diversity and Inclusion is Present in Searches: Once a unit has been authorized to recruit for a new or vacant position, the position will automatically be advertised on the Rutgers job portal. The unit also has the option to advertise the position externally, i.e. The Chronicle of Higher Education. If the unit decides to advertise the position externally, the cost of the external advertisement is borne by the recruiting unit. In addition to any action taken by the recruiting unit, Camden Human Resources will automatically advertise the open position in a variety of sites and periodicals to promote diversity and inclusion. The cost of advertising in the diversity and inclusion sites and periodicals will be borne by the Chancellor’s Office. If the recruiting unit has additional diversity and inclusion sites and periodicals that are particular to that unit’s recruitment, the recruiting unit should request that Camden Human Resources also advertise in those sites and periodicals. The cost of advertising in the additional diversity and inclusion sites will be borne by the Chancellor’s Office. The purpose of this process is to create a diverse applicant pool for all positions. Once the application pool has been established, a diverse search committee will be appointed to conduct the search for the successful applicant. From the applicant pool, the search committee will select a group of candidates to interview. Camden Human Resources will have an advisory role on the search committee to ensure that the diversity of the candidate interview pool reflects the diversity of the applicant pool. If not, Camden Human Resources will instruct the search committee to review the interview selection process to ensure the diversity of each pool is comparable. At the conclusion of the process, the search committee will recommend the best candidate(s) to the recruiting unit for appointment. All members of search committees must have participated in both the campus-wide diversity and inclusion training and the diversity and inclusion training specific to search committees.

Recruitment Toolkit for Managers The goal of the recruitment process is to attract, recruit, develop, and retain the very best talent who successfully strengthen the teaching, research, and administrative functions of Rutgers University-Camden. The following toolkit will provide managers with the information they will need to successfully hire the right person in the right position. Once the position is posted and you have identified your search committee and are ready to begin reviewing applicants, there is a process that should be followed to ensure compliance with all University policies and procedures as well as federal, state, and local laws and regulations. Hiring managers should consult the HR department with any questions or concerns. SCREENING APPLICANTS
ROCS makes it easy to work with your search committee on screening applicants. Some important things to remember as you begin screening the applications:
• Any internal candidates that are in the same union as the position AND meet the minimum qualifications of the job must be interviewed first. The minimum qualifications of a position are listed on the CARF or in ROCS under Minimum Education and Experience or Required Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities. An internal candidate who is in the same union can be from any Rutgers campus, not just Camden.
• Once all qualified internal candidates are interviewed, the department may begin screening external applicants.
Please see the “ROCS Applicant Reviewer” attachment on how to move applicants through the workflow in ROCS. Once you have identified those applicants whom you would like to interview, it is recommended that an initial telephone interview take place (whether it is an internal or external applicant). This telephone interview will allow you to get the basic information out of the way such as salary needs, work schedule, etc. and may narrow down your applicant pool a bit. This can be done prior to the involvement of the search committee in order utilize their time wisely.
2
CONDUCTING A PHONE INTERVIEW
Some items to consider:
• Schedule the call for no more than 20 minutes • Review the applicant’s resume and other materials • Prepare questions such as:
o Why the person is interested in leaving current job o Salary needs o Work schedule o One or two technical questions about position o One or two behavioral questions to determine fit
• Inform the applicant that you are performing a preliminary interview • Review the job details • Provide candidate with information about the next step in the process • Thank the candidate for their time
INTERVIEWING TIPS
The goals of the interview process are to gather information, create a positive image of the department/university, present a realistic description of the position, ensure that all applicants have been treated fairly and consistently, establish a record in the event the selection decision must be justified, and, ultimately, select a qualified candidate. Preparing for the Interview Several steps are necessary in preparing for an interview. Identify Selection Criteria: The search committee should review the responsibilities of the position and reach agreement on what education and experience requirements are necessary, as well as the required behavioral qualifications (e.g., communication skills, teamwork, and customer service). Develop Appropriate Questions: The interviewer(s) should develop job-related questions that will be asked of all applicants to probe their education, level of related experience, and other attributes required for the position. You may also want to ask questions that will help you determine if the candidate has a strong service excellence orientation. We have provided you with some sample interview questions below. Illegal Questions: It is Rutgers University’s policy to provide equal employment opportunity to all its employees and applicants for employment regardless of their race, creed, color, national origin, age, ancestry, nationality, marital or domestic partnership or civil union status, sex, pregnancy, gender identity or expression, disability status, liability for military service, protected veteran status, affectional or sexual orientation, atypical cellular or blood trait, genetic information (including the refusal to submit to genetic testing), or any other category protected by law.

Establish Rapport: A cordial greeting and suitable introductions will establish rapport and help create a pleasant atmosphere. Following the greeting, some “small talk” is usually of value to relax the applicant and help establish open communication. Gather information: Interviewing requires listening, probing, reflecting, summarizing, and evaluating skills. Ideally, the interviewer should talk only about 25 percent of the time. Avoid asking questions that require only “yes” or “no” answers or multiple choice questions, since that means you are leading the conversation. Ask open-ended questions that encourage the applicant to express ideas and provide information. Ask follow-up questions that encourage further conversation. Open-ended questions start with “tell me about….please discuss….explain how….tell me more about…” and encourage the applicant to elaborate. Describe the position and the organization: Provide sufficient facts, both favorable and unfavorable about the position and the department in a straightforward manner so that the applicant can make an intelligent decision about the acceptability of the position. Use caution in describing the position. Do not assure the applicant that if hired, he/she can count on a long career or that there are no layoffs. Discussion of salary, promotional opportunities, and job security issues must be carefully worded. Do not make promises you do not have the authority to make. Answer questions and allow the applicant to add information: The applicant’s objectives are to gather information about the position and promote him/herself for the position. Provide the opportunity for the applicant to accomplish these objectives. Conclude the interview: Thank the applicant for his/her time and explain what will happen next. Tell the applicant when the hiring decision will be made and how it will be communicated. Sample Interview Questions All Positions Motivation

After completing all interviews, and prior to making a hiring decision and commitment, check the references of the final candidate(s). The following guidelines are offered to assist you in this process:
• You should state during the interview with a job applicant that references will be checked. Do not only rely on letters of reference or personal references provided by the applicant.
• A telephone reference check takes less time than a written reference check and usually more information is gained. Forms may not uncover negative information and employers may hesitate to put into writing what they may say in a conversation.
• The hiring supervisor is usually the best one to make the call because he/she is most familiar with the information obtained from the candidate and the responsibilities of the job. Supervisors should be prepared with a written list of job –related questions (see below) and be consistent in the questions asked. Questions concerning race, religion, national origin, ancestry, sex, sexual orientation, marital status, age, or disability cannot be asked.
• When calling a candidate’s reference, identify yourself and tell the reference about the position for which the candidate is being considered.
7
• To gain as much information as possible let the reference speak without interrupting. If the reference pauses in the conversation, it may mean he/she has other information they are hesitant to share. Get them to talk about everything that would be helpful, but only ask for information that will be used in the hiring decision.
• Ask only job-related questions and document all answers. Avoid questions that can be answered “yes” or “no.” Ask for specific information – “Tell me about this person’s attendance and punctuality."
• If the reference is reluctant to provide information, ask if he/she will verify the information read from the candidate’s resume or employment application.
• One of the most important questions to get answered is if there is any reason the organization would not rehire the individual.
• Check multiple references whenever possible.
Sample Reference Check Questions
• How long have you known {candidate} and in what capacity? • Describe the candidate’s overall work performance in terms of skills, quality, and
contribution to your organization. • What are {candidate} strengths and areas for development? • Please describe overall work / performance in terms of attitude, dependability, and
trustworthiness. • Is {candidate} someone you would hire again? • Why did {candidate} leave your organization? • Is there any additional information that you feel we should know in considering
{candidate} for employment?
MAKING AN OFFER
Upon completion of the recruitment process the offer to the selected finalist is made. Work with Camden HR to ensure the salary adheres to all University policies and procedures, union regulations, and federal, state, and local regulations. Whenever possible, it is recommended that your best offer be made the first time to the candidate. Be sure to include the TOTAL compensation package (in addition to salary) such as paid time off, health benefits, retirement benefits, and tuition remission. Despite your best offer, there may be instances where the applicant declines based on salary. The department may make a counter offer provided the amount is within the approved budget amount. It is recommended that the department work with Camden HR to ensure it still adheres to all policies, procedures, and regulations.

The schedule affords the optimum opportunity for job action requests to be reflected by the start (effective) date of the action. To use the schedule, match
the effective date that is on the appointment letter with the same date in the first column below. The same row of the second column displays the earliest
date to submit the request through the HCM/Payroll system's Template-based Hire or Manager Self-Service queues. The third column lists the cutoff
(latest) date to submit the request in order to meet the job effective date.
* Requests should be submitted and approved at the department level before the "HCM Cutoff Date" for the effective date of the appointment /action
being requested.
* Requests should not be submitted before the "Submission to HCM Start Date".
* Requests need to have no conflicts or issues and have complete and accurate supporting documentation attached, to be processed.
