4120 - EMPLOYMENT OF SUPPORT STAFF

The following guidelines are established for the interviewing and screening of candidates for support staff positions:

1. Where specific openings exist in positions that could afford present employees an opportunity to be upgraded, such notice shall be posted in the schools of this District.
2. Employment priority (as opposed to promotional priority) should be given to former employees placed on a reemployment list with satisfactory service records who have been laid off because of lack of work or lack of funds. Following the exhaustion of the aforenoted categories, only candidates having the most favorable applications will be interviewed.
3. Applications are to be made through WECAN or in writing to the District office.
4. Checking of credentials may include direct telephone calls to immediate supervisors, current and past, of the person being considered.
5. Applicants may be granted an interview if their credentials indicate they meet the criteria for the position.
6. Terms of employment shall be made known to the candidate at the time of the interview.

In selecting personnel to fill established positions, the District Administrator or designee shall be responsible for selecting the person best qualified to fill each position in accordance with position specifications established by the Board. Each final candidate must have a satisfactory criminal records check.
