During a search committee review, applicants are rated according to selection criteria. The selection criteria can be added to the job card by the HR/Faculty Affairs Representative or Hiring Manager.
This guide shows you how to review existing selection criteria, add selection criteria and create ad-hoc selection criteria for a job in the CHRS Recruiting system.
Review selection criteria
Before any job applicants are released for search committee review, you must ensure that the selection criteria are appropriate for the position. You must decide if any criteria need to be added, revised or removed.
- You can add or remove search criteria, if you are permitted to do so.
- When an applicant is being reviewed by the search committee, the committee members use these selection criteria to evaluate the applicants.
- Click Manage Jobs or My Jobs from the Main Menu.
- On the job requisition, scroll down to the Search Details section.
- Review the information in the Selection Criteria box.

- Verify that the selection criteria are adequate.
Add Selection Criteria
The search committee uses the selection criteria to review the applicants against the qualifications for the job. These selection criteria must be added to the job before they can be considered by the search committee.
There are two ways to add selection criteria to a job:
- Add pre-defined criteria from the competency library
- Create ad-hoc selection criteria
Add Pre-defined Selection Criteria
- On the Requisition Information form, scroll own until you see the Search Details area.
- Click Add. The Selection Criteria search window opens.

- Use the Selection Criteria search window to search for applicable selection criteria.

- Click Add.
- Click Done. The selection criteria are added to the job.
Create Ad-hoc Selection Criteria
If you cannot find the specific selection criteria in the competency library, and if you have permission, you can write in new criteria. When you add the criteria, you also specify a job competency to which the criteria belong.
- In the Selection Criteria box of the Search Details area, click New.

- Select a job competency (group).

- Type in the desired criterion, for example: “Able to communicate easily with a diverse audience.”
- Click Add.
- Click Done.
Selection Criteria Guidelines
- When selection criteria are populated by the job role, they cannot be removed.
- Ad-hoc selection criteria are not added to the competency library.
- When you write in new criteria, be sure to select the applicable job competency.
- Selection criteria and job competencies are defined by campus, but stored in a competency library that allows for system-wide visibility and access.
- Selection criteria are grouped under the job competencies.
