Purpose
The University aims to recruit and attract high quality staff. Several challenges impact on the University’s capacity to recruit and select staff with the required capabilities. These challenges include a diminishing labour market, increasing competition among employers for staff and the changing demographics of the working population. In response to these challenges, the University needs a comprehensive and rigorous yet simplified approach to recruiting and selecting talented staff.
This policy provides an open and transparent framework for managers and supervisors to select staff employed under the terms of the General Staff Agreement. This Agreement includes general, technical, professional and some research staff. The policy is supported by a selection and appointment guide which maps the selection processes and techniques to be used by the selection committee.
