INTRODUCTION
The University of Cincinnati is an Affirmative Action/Equal Opportunity Employer. There are laws
that ban discrimination and require federal contractors and subcontractors to take affirmative
action (positive action or behavior) to ensure that all individuals have an equal opportunity for
employment, without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, disability or status as a
Vietnam era or special disabled veteran.
The President has charged the Office of Equal Opportunity and Access (OEOA) to strengthen its role
in the recruitment of academic, administrative and executive positions and to make greater
progress on goals established in the UC Affirmative Action Plan for Women, African Americans and
People of Color and to ensure that the University is practicing equal opportunity.
The Office of Equal Opportunity and Access (OEOA) has developed this guide to assist departments
and faculty and staff search committees with the search process. The OEOA has oversight of the
recruitment and selection process at the University. The goal of the OEOA is to assist management
to ensure that recruitments and appointments are filled based on merit and qualifications in
compliance with the following UC policy on nondiscrimination and affirmative action.
The University of Cincinnati is committed to excellence and diversity in our students, faculty, staff,
and all of our activities. A fundamental component to achieving diversity is ensuring equal
opportunity for all through affirmative action and by providing an inclusive environment free from
invidious discrimination in all of its forms. Invidious is discrimination on the basis of race, color,
religion, national origin, ancestry, disability, medical condition, marital status, sex, age, sexual
orientation, veteran status, or gender identity and expression.
Affirmative Action is the good faith effort to achieve full utilization of women and minority groups
at all levels in all areas of the university. Invidious discrimination shall not be tolerated. Where past
or present discrimination continues to have an adverse impact upon protected class members such
as minority groups, women, disabled, covered veterans, or disabled veterans, the university will
take affirmative action in carrying out its policy of non-discrimination and equal opportunity for all.
Allegations of invidious discrimination should be made to the Office of Equal Opportunity and
Access (OEOA). The OEOA shall investigate and resolve complaints.

I. STARTING THE SEARCH
AUTHORIZATION TO HIRE
• Searches for faculty positions are initiated by the department chair or dean and are
approved by the Provost/Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs (the Provost).
• The department requisition is then reviewed and approved by the Budget Office for funding.
• A requisition is completed by the department head and forwarded to the vice president and
then to the Budget Office for approval.
After the position requisition has been approved and a recruitment number assigned in
People Admin a search may begin.
• Appoints an Equal Opportunity Coordinator (EOC) for the unit who has the authority to
act on behalf of the Dean/VP
• Charges the search committee on the recruitment process
• Reviews the search process to ensure conformity with university policies and practices
The Equal Opportunity Coordinator (EOC) works with the Office of Equal Opportunity
and Access (OEOA) to achieve the unit’s affirmative action goals.
Page | 4
Office of Equal Opportunity and Access assists units to achieve affirmative action
goals. Assists search committees with the search process and assures compliance
with federal requirements and University policies.
• -Reviews the final recommendation and selection before the offer is made
The role of a search committee is to oversee the recruitment and hiring process to ensure that a
complete and fair search is conducted, and that the most qualified candidate is chosen.
No search should be initiated prior to a meeting with the OEOA and the academic or
administrative EOC.
The size of the committee may vary and often depends on the position scope, departmental
procedures, and the nature of the search itself. Generally, a good size for a search committee is five
or more members.
Committee members should be individuals who understand the requirements of the position and
who are committed to the mission and goals of the department and the university.
Every reasonable effort should be made to form a committee that represents the diversity of the
university community by including members who are People of Color, Women, covered
veterans, and the disabled in order to provide a variety of perspectives as well as to ensure
awareness of affirmative action issues.
The Office of Equal Opportunity and Access shall review the composition of the search
committee.
Page | 5
Search Committee Chair Responsibilities
Searches conducted by a department chair will be coordinated with the OEOA prior to the
recruitment to fill the position.
Searches conducted by a Search Firm will be coordinated with the administrative unit or Provost
Office and the OEOA
In order for the activities of the search committee to take place in a timely fashion, it is important
for the committee to establish timelines and deadlines, especially for the following activities:
Page | 6
CONFIDENTIALITY
Search committee members should consider and discuss the issue of confidentiality, including the
need to protect the integrity and candor of member-to-member discussions as well as the identity
of candidates.
Each member of the search committee assumes the responsibility to limit discussion of candidates
to those persons within the institution from whom it is appropriate to seek input or who otherwise
have a need to know, and to those persons outside of the institution who serve formally or
informally as references or recruiting sources.
No search committee member may contact an applicant individually without approval of the search
committee chairperson.
Search Committee members should keep all information received in connection with any
candidate’s background check confidential.
Advertising the position in a print and on-line is one aspect of soliciting applicants;
however, recruitment is beyond ads. The search committee has to consciously strive to
build a diverse pool of candidates.
The search committee must know the workforce demographic which will help with
determining appropriate strategies to ensure a diverse and qualified applicant pool.
The search committee must go beyond where to find “the best mathematician or chemist or
engineer” to looking for “the best female mathematician” or “the best African American
chemist” or “the best engineer who is a person of color”.
RECRUITMENT PLAN
The search committee should invest time and thought in developing an effective
Recruitment Plan in order to maximize the candidate sourcing process.
A Recruitment Plan must be prepared in consultation with EOC and OEOA. The OEOA will examine
the recruitment plan to confirm that extensive and appropriate outreach efforts will be made to
generate a diverse pool of candidates.
The OEOA must approve the Plan before the search begins (See Appendix II for a sample
Recruitment Plan Approval Form).
A copy of the approved Recruitment Plan and a draft of the position announcement will be a part of
Page | 7
the file in People Admin.
Following the recruitment, the Good Faith Efforts should be included and documented on People
Admin.
For a list of women and people of color publications and recruitment sources see Appendix V and
VI. Building a relationship with these contacts will demonstrate the department’s commitment to
equal employment opportunity.
1. Be aware of and avoid the pervasive myths about recruitment of diverse candidates:
a. We can’t compete because we can’t pay enough
b. There are no women and people of color in the pipeline in my field
2. Lay the groundwork for recruiting, not just during the time a search is underway
a. Search for prospective candidates at conferences
b. Build linkages with diverse local and national organizations
7. Monitor the salary and start-up packages offered to new hires to assure that they are
equitable
a. Most women and minorities will not negotiate as aggressively as men
Page | 8
b. People with better packages advance faster
9. Provide sufficient resources for departments committed to this goal such as:
a. Extra staff support for search committees
b. Incentives and bridge grants to help departments
c. Release time for one faculty member to be the year-round recruiter
d. Incentives to do cluster hiring across or within departments
e. Support of minority speakers and visiting scholars
10. Pay attention to the life-style concerns of top candidates and prepare to address them
during the visit. Discover in advance what their concerns are about:
a. Housing and schools
b. The composition of the community
c. Cultural offerings and social life opportunities
• The position description should be reviewed by the Dean/VP, EOC and the OEOA to ensure
that it contains all the specific information related to the actual needs of the position.
• A well-conceived and well-written position announcement will assist the search committee
at all stages of the recruitment and provide job relevant evaluation criteria upon which
interview questions can be based.
• Completion of the position description is necessary to initiate the recruitment process.
• A position description must be sufficiently descriptive that prospective applicants will
understand the purpose and function of the position that they are considering.
• It should outline the position to be filled, including primary (essential functions) and
secondary duties, and should list the qualifications that candidates must possess.
• Position descriptions may vary, but those for faculty positions should include the following:
1. Title of the position
2. Application deadline date or date review of applications begins;
3. Date of appointment;
4. Rank (if applicable);
5. Salary range or statement “salary commensurate with qualifications and
experience”;
6. Statement describing the position including the specific functions of the position,
responsibilities and position relationships (to whom does the position report);
7. Minimum and ideal qualifications;
8. Credentials the applicant must submit [e.g., curriculum vitae, 3 letters of reference, a
statement of teaching philosophy, etc.]
Page | 9
POSITION ANNOUNCEMENT
The position announcement should describe the education, experience, knowledge, skills and
competencies that are required of potential applicants.
For faculty positions, the minimum required qualifications are specified clearly in the University
Bylaws. Other qualifications may be added as ideal qualifications provided, they are consistent
with the duties of the position.
Only list the minimum requirements for the position. (i.e., degree level and field of study) Specify
the timeframe with regard to attainment of required degree or license.
Example: a PH.D. in Physics and two years of university level teaching (specify general
nature of courses).
Do not advertise “ideal” qualifications or make vague references to qualifications which are neither
quantified (measurable) or qualified.
Page | 10
ADVERTISEMENT
Advertising shall be organized by the search committee and coordinated with the college office.
It is expected that all searches for tenure-track, executive and administrative positions will
be conducted on a national level.
Federal requirements for affirmative action obligate a search committee to make a “good
faith effort” to develop a talent pool reflecting the availability of people of color and women
in the labor force.
The search committee must advertise the position in a manner that will bring it to the attention of
underrepresented groups.
The following statement should be included on all advertisements: “The University of Cincinnati
is an affirmative action/equal opportunity employer M/F/Vets/Disabled.” An additional
statement may also be included in the advertisement: “Women, People of Color, persons with a
disability, and covered veterans and disabled veterans are encouraged to apply. We are
committed to increasing the diversity of the University community. Candidates who can
contribute to that goal are encouraged to apply and to identify their strengths or
experiences in this area.”
Keep in mind, the sponsoring employer is not permitted to tailor the requirements to the foreign
national’s credentials. The Department of Labor (DOL) is adamant that only actual minimum
requirements be reported in a labor certification application. The regulations specifically state that
the employer must not have hired workers with less training or experience for jobs substantially
comparable to that involved in the job opportunity.” Thus, departments must be consistent with
prior hiring practices when setting minimum requirements.
The DOL assigns job codes to positions which reflect the level of requirements considered “normal”
for the occupation. If the employer exceeds the designed DOL norm, the employer must be able to
support the business necessity for such requirements.
1. For example, if the department advertised that five years of experience is required
and DOL considers three years of experience as “normal”, we would need a
statement as to business necessity in order to proceed with the labor certification
application.
For these reasons, the department should consult International Services before the ad is
placed.
Page | 11
EMPLOYMENT ELIGIBILITY/PERMANENT RESIDENT PETITIONS
These guidelines were established for those individuals who need a work visa or for whom you
wish to sponsor for a resident alien card (green card).
A permanent resident is someone who is granted permission to live and work in the United States
indefinitely.
UC International Services is responsible for processing work visas and for managing the University
of Cincinnati’s compliance with the Department of Labor’s Program Electronic Review Management
System (PERM) for international employees filing labor certifications needed for permanent
resident petitions.
UC International Services will file labor certifications for faculty and international workers the
hiring departments choose to sponsor for permanent residency.
Upon approval of the LCA’s, UC International Services will also prepare the immigrant petition and
assist the employees with their adjustment of status applications with US Citizenship and
Immigration Services.
The following highlights some of the key advertising requirements that are now in effect:
Department of Labor requirements for ad content specify that the following be included in each ad:
• Name of employer (University of Cincinnati)
• Geographic area of employment (Cincinnati, Ohio)
• A full description of the job duties
In order to file a labor certification for a faculty member the position must have been advertised in
print or electronic format in a national professional journal or publication
International faculty and a representative of the hiring department should be instructed to consult
with UC International Services about the Labor Certification process immediately after the hiring.
Salary indication is optional and is not advised, given that it may not meet the Department of
Labor’s Prevailing Wage Determination.
There is no need to advertise the minimum requirements such as experience and training, but if
they are stated in the ad, they must be included in the labor certification application.
Page | 12
• Fulfillment of the prior experience requirements must be documented by employment
verification letters.
For further information about the work visas and the permanent resident process please
refer to the UC International Services web site at www.uc.edu/international/services.
• A permanent resident is someone who is granted permission to live and work in the United
States indefinitely
• UC International Services is responsible for processing work visas and for managing the
University of Cincinnati’s compliance with the Department of Labor’s Program Electronic
Review Management System (PERM), through which labor certification applications are
filed for international employees.
• UC International Services will file labor certifications for faculty and international works
when the hiring departments choose to sponsor them for permanent residency.
• Upon approval of the labor certification application, UC International Services will also
prepare immigrant petitions and assist employees with their adjustment of status
applications with US Citizenship and Immigration Services.
The People Admin applicant tracking system is introduced into the hiring process.
The online requisition form should be completed by the hiring manager and forwarded for
appropriate review and approvals.
Individuals who are hired by the University must apply through the on-line applicant system
at www.jobsatuc.com.
Search committee members can develop specific questions (posting specific questions) and assign
point values to answers in order to identify qualified applicants. The search committee would
provide the hiring manager or EOC with the list questions to include on the online requisition.
For assistance in developing Posting Specific Questions in People Admin system, please contact the
Human Resources Service Center (556-6381).

III. SCREENING PROCESS
UNCONSCIOUS BIAS
Each search committee member brings a lifetime of experience and cultural history that shapes the
evaluation process and creates non-conscious hypotheses (expectations or stereotypes). They are
unintentional and outside of our awareness and can influence our judgment of others. It can impact
how we perceive or treat people based on physical or social categories.
It affects the evaluation of CVs and resumes, job credentials, applications, and letters of
recommendations.
If the use of and impact of bias is not acknowledged and addressed, the processes for recruitment,
selection and advancement can be flawed, resulting in some candidates being underestimated
and/or disadvantaged unfairly, while others are inadvertently advantage.
REVIEWING APPLICATIONS
The search committee is responsible for screening applications based on the advertised
qualifications.
All applicants should be notified of the status of their application. This notification may be sent by
utilizing the e-mail communication process in People Admin.
The search committee should evaluate the applications utilizing the previously agreed-upon criteria
and screening procedures.
Each search committee member may make written comments on the qualifications for every
applicant. This will allow the committee to determine which candidates are to be interviewed and
will also save time if it becomes necessary to return to the applicant pool at a later date.
Search committee members are to be advised that all written comments might become part of the
recruitment file that may later become public.
Page | 14
REASONABLE ACCOMMODATIONS
The University has a legal responsibility to provide accommodations on grounds covered by the
Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
Applicants with a disability must be assessed solely in terms of the qualifications required for the
position and their ability to perform the essential functions of the position (with or without
reasonable accommodations).
The fact that a qualified person requires some form of accommodation to perform the job cannot be
used in the assessment.
From the list of candidates who meet the minimum qualifications, the search committee should
identify a short list of candidates selected to be interviewed and invited for on-campus visits.
Short lists of candidates identified to proceed in the selection process should reflect a similar
demographic composition of the applicant pool and/or available workforce. The EOC and OEOA
have access to the demographics of the applicant pool and will determine if any adjustments in
recruitment, candidate sourcing, selection criteria, evaluation, etc. need to be made.
Visits should be scheduled at the earliest possible time after the application deadline date and
should not be limited to only one candidate.
The search committee should develop a list of core interview questions based only on position-
related criteria. The same questions should be asked of all candidates, which will allow
comparative judgments while ensuring that crucial position-related information is obtained.
The committee may find it helpful to print the questions on a form with space below to record the
candidate’s responses and the interviewer’s reactions.
Page | 15
Search committee members and other individuals involved in interviewing candidates need to
concentrate on position-related questions and must avoid inquiries with a discriminatory
implication (See Appendix III and IV for examples).
Even though you did not ask for the information, you may still be charged with discrimination if a
question arises subsequently about how this information was used.
Should an applicant volunteer information that does not relate to the position, you should handle
the situation in the following manner:
• Refer the applicant to sources that may answer his or her questions about non-
job-related information
For most faculty searches, the interview is one aspect of the recruitment process.
Equally important is the on-campus visit. Departments might want to consider having candidates
teach a class, present a seminar, deliver a lecture, meet with students, etc.
It is important that the same itinerary be followed for all candidates brought to campus for
interviews.
Upon completion of the interviews and campus visits, the search committee should meet to review
the merits of each individual, prepare summations, and make the recommendation(s) to the
department head, dean, and provost.

TELEPHONE INTERVIEWS
The following guidelines can be used when conducting a telephone interviews. Ideally phone
interviews should be conducted with all search committee members present.
The search committee should take into account that phone screening may or may not be the best
technique for all candidates.
Some candidates can be more nervous or appear very flat during this process because the
interview lacks many of the non-verbal cues of an in- person interview.
1. Call the candidate, introduce yourself and outline the framework for the interview.
5. The Interviewer should manage the time and flow of the interview.
6. Follow up questions: after the candidate answers the standard questions, the lead
interviewer will ask the interview team if anyone has any follow up questions. After all
interview questions have been asked, the candidate is given a chance to ask questions.
7. The lead interviewer should thank the candidate for their time and interest in
employment with the University of Cincinnati and provide information on when the
interviewer will get back to the candidate.
8. The lead interviews will end the call and the search committee will finalize their
evaluation sheets on the candidate and determine directly the candidates to invite for
on campus interviews.
Page | 19
ON-CAMPUS INTERVIEWS
If the candidate will be meeting with a number of individuals for interviews during a visit,
provide the candidate with the schedule and who will be coordinating the movement from
interview to interview. Make sure the candidate has time for adequate breaks during the
visit. Also, in the case of multiple interviews, it is important to have different interviewers
focus on specific areas to avoid redundancy in questions.
ON-CAMPUS PROCEDURES
1. Greet and identify yourself by name and title to the candidate and the role in the
interview process.
2. Provide the candidate with a general overview of the position you are seeking to fill.
3. The search committee should ask each candidate the same standard list of core
interview questions based only on position-related criteria. The same questions should
be asked of all candidates, which will allow comparative judgments while ensuring that
crucial position-related information is obtained.
4. Interviewers ask questions in turn by pre-determined assignment.
5. The Interviewer should manage the time and flow of the interview.
a. Explore the Candidates’ Work History
• Starting with the most recent job, use open-ended questions (how, when,
why) to elicit the most information. Ask about likes and dislikes
concerning the job.
• Level and complexity of work
• Teaching or Research interests, collaborations, publications (for
research staff if not already provided with CV)
• Extent of responsibility and level of progression
• Effectiveness, accomplishments and achievements
• Job stability and reasons for leaving previous jobs
6. Follow up questions: after the candidate answers the standard questions, the lead
interviewer will ask the interview team if anyone has any follow up questions. After all
interview questions have been asked, the candidate is given a chance to ask questions.
7. The lead interviewer should thank the candidate for their time and interest in
employment with the University of Cincinnati and provide information on next steps in
the interview process.
The search committee will finalize their evaluation sheets on the candidates.
Page | 20
REFERENCE CHECKS
Reference checks may be initiated after interviews occur and shall be made for candidates being
considered as finalists.
Reference checks may also serve as an additional screening process if completed prior to inviting a
candidate for an interview.
In either case, candidates should be contacted - first, to ensure their continuing interest in
the position and, secondly, to obtain permission to contact references.
However, to facilitate the screening process, each committee member may be asked to contact one
or more references.
When phone references are conducted, it is important to use a standard set of questions and have at
least two committee members conduct the phone reference.
All comments received should be recorded and shared with the search committee.
Additional references may always be requested after the actual interview and before any
recommendations are made.
BACKGROUND CHECKS
The University requires that all newly hired faculty and staff complete a background check.
The University of Cincinnati background check process is completed on‐line through People
Admin our on‐line application/requisition tracking system, and HireRight a web‐based
information verification solutions company focused on assisting businesses in making
smarter, faster, more effective employment decisions.
The hiring department is responsible for any and all costs associated with the background
check.
This procedure covers faculty and staff candidates who are in the final stages of the hiring
process and are required to obtain a pre‐employment criminal history check (background
check).
Background check results may not necessarily prevent the University from proceeding with
hiring an individual however it will ensure that UC personnel (with a need to know) are
knowledgeable about relevant information in advance.
Departments may initiate a background check request by changing the selected candidate(s)
applicant status once an individual has been approved by the Office of Equal Opportunity
and Access (OEOA).
Page | 21
V. MAKING THE OFFER
The final hire offer cannot be made until all approvals have been secured, including the Office of
Equal Opportunity and Access.
The search committee chair has the responsibility of preparing a final report outlining the
committee’s process and making its recommendation(s).
This report, along with the appropriate support documentation, shall be forwarded to the Equal
Opportunity Coordinator and Dean/VP for review.
b) Outline of the criteria and process used to narrow the applicant pool
d) The ranking of the candidates as determined by the committee and the rationale for the
ranking
f) Include copies of all advertisements, postings, letters, contact lists and any other
recruitment sources used.
g) This report should be uploaded in People Admin in the field “Good Faith Efforts.”
THE APPLICANT LIST SENT TO HIRING MANAGER
For every search the Office of Equal Opportunity and Access (OEOA) is required to maintain an
applicant log that contains applicant data, including: college, department, position applied for, job
group number, application date, applicant name, race, sex and disposition (i.e. interviewed, or why
excluded).
• The applicant list, shared with the hiring manager will include all applicants who meet the
minimum qualifications.
• In the event that an interviewed applicant or a finalist does not self-identify on the applicant
log maintained by the Office of Equal Opportunity and Access (OEOA), you may be contacted
and asked to complete visual race and/or sex of the applicant or finalist (See Ethnicity
Definitions at Appendix VIII).
• An appropriate “not hired reason” must be completed for every applicant.
• For the candidate selected, provide more justification for hiring than “best qualified.”

APPENDIX III
GOOD RECRUITMENT, INTERVIEWING, AND HIRING PRACTICES
General Principles
• Open positions should be communicated broadly both within and beyond the university.
• Colleagues throughout the appropriate discipline should be informed of the programs and
opportunities available at the University of Cincinnati.
• The goal of every faculty search should be to put together the best pool possible.
• Good faith effort needs to be made in order to develop a diverse pool of applicants and to
create equal employment opportunity.
Extending Invitations
• Special efforts should be made to invite outstanding individuals, including Women and
People of Color faculty, to lecture and to interact professionally with students and faculty.
Faculty may coordinate efforts with other university programs such as Just Community.
• It is in the best interest of the university to conduct open and fair searches for all faculty
positions.
Women and People of Color Candidates
• In keeping with the university’s equal employment opportunity policy, faculty search
committees should make a concerted effort to attract Women and People of Color
candidates.
• In addition, search committee members should seek the assistance of culturally diverse
organizations and individuals, including faculty, for information and contacts for
recruitment purposes.
• Search committee members should solicit help in locating candidates through the wide
distribution of the job announcement and by encouraging employees to provide sources.
General Guidelines
• Selecting excellent employees requires good judgment and fair treatment in evaluating
candidates.
• Carried out impartially, the process can also foster good public relations.
• This experience can engender good will and high regard for the university and the
department involved in the search.
a) Do ensure that all candidate pools are as diverse as possible and that the
recruitment process has been open and communicated widely.
Candidates should be asked the same or similar position- related questions, and
search committee members should evaluate candidates on the same criteria.
c) Do ensure that the format of the interview is consistent for all candidates.
Afford each candidate the opportunity to respond and ask questions as appropriate.
Sensitivity should be given to individual candidates (i.e., their choices for food,
specific requests to talk with groups and/or any other matters relevant to the
interview).
The substance of the information provided during the interview should be viewed
as more important than the candidate’s communication style.
a) Do not invite candidates for “token” interviews including Women and People of
Color with no intent of serious consideration.
b) Do not inquire into a candidate’s age, religion, financial condition, disability, marital
status, national origin, place of birth, or other personal matters.
d) Do not use statements that would lead candidates to assume that their appointment
might create a problem for the department.
The guidelines review what inquiries are lawful and unlawful so that you will not incur any legal
liability.
Techniques
Control the interview
Stay on track.
Cover all pertinent areas.
Explore inconsistencies, time gaps and missing data on the
resume/application.
Improve your style
Be aware of the impact of your facial expressions and body language. Be
careful not to show your reaction to an interviewee’s words, gestures,
facial expressions, etc.
Do not talk a lot! Let the applicant talk the majority of the time---
ideally 80%. That way you can be sure to get enough information to
make a sound decision.
Do not let your mind wander; you may miss something important or get
off track and lose control of the interview.
Echoing
When you want the interviewee to expand on a statement, rephrase and
Page | 28
repeat what that person has said, then ask him/her to tell you more; i.e.
“You say that you were responsible for… Tell me more about that.”
Silences
Do not be uncomfortable with brief silences. Be patient---you may learn
something from the direction the interviewee decides to take.
Evaluate the applicant on the established criteria
Evaluate the applicant on whether or not he/she has the qualifications,
as advertised, to be successful in the position.
Failure to listen
Do not think ahead to what you are going to ask next. Avoid introducing
your own unrelated and non-pertinent thoughts during the interview.
Halo effect
Do not allow one or two favorable but unrelated traits bias your
judgment of the candidate. Avoid making quick judgments, especially in
areas where you typically have strong personal biases.
Making promises
Do not make promises.
