HR Update

Updated Priority Hire Process

Based on recent feedback from HR units, ELR and the Talent Acquisition team have made some additional refinements to the Priority Hire Process. Under the refined process, the Talent Acquisition team will match a Priority Hire candidate based on the minimum qualifications of the job posting rather than giving the candidate five business days to submit their application. During this process, they will remove the position from the website and inform the candidate about the match. They will also let the hiring manager know so they can immediately schedule an interview with the candidate. 

The streamlined process is compliant with the collective bargaining agreements and Civil Service Employment Rules and helps ensure that we achieve our goal of connecting qualified candidates more quickly with job opportunities. These updates also allow for easier administration of the Priority Hire Program and will help reduce the number of Priority Hire candidates waiting for a match. We are confident these changes will lead to a better overall experience for everyone involved in the program.

As a reminder, you can find the Priority Hire Process documentation on the HR Community Page at: HR Community > Employee Relations > Labor and Civil Service. If you have questions, please contact your Talent Acquisition Specialist.
