This form is in BPLogix and is used to start the recruitment process. The PAR will identify the position needing to be filled, who will be on the search committee and how the position should be advertised.

You can use the Position Description Template until the Title and Total Compensation project is effective.  

Position Description Template   

Advertising is key to getting great qualified candidates and that starts with the job posting. This template will guide you in creating an engaging ad to draw candidates to apply. It should highlight UW-Parkside, the department and the job.
