THE EMPLOYMENT PROCESS

Park County School District #6

THE ADVERTISEMENT PROCESS

Whenever a vacancy occurs in the school district, a vacancy announcement will be prepared and distributed by central office personnel. Vacancy announcements will be posted in all school district offices, will be advertised in the local newspaper, will be sent to selected university placement offices and possibly listed with other agencies and sources deemed appropriate by the school administration.

THE APPLICATION PROCESS

Persons interested in applying should complete the appropriate application. Completed applications and other information requested in the vacancy notice and on the district website (www.park6.org) must be returned to the Human Resources Office prior to the posted deadline. Incomplete applications will not be considered or maintained.

THE SCREENING PROCESS

The supervising administrator will appoint a committee to screen the applications according to predetermined criteria for each position. The screening committee will determine which candidates will be selected for interview.

THE INTERVIEW PROCESS

The candidates selected for interviews will be personally contacted and asked to come to one of the district offices for a personal interview conducted by an interview committee. This interview will be at the candidate’s own expense. Interview committees will consist of selected administrators and the interview committee may request other personnel as may be requestion by the interview committee. Informal interviews or interviews of candidates not selected by the screening committee will not be held. Telephone interviews are not acceptable.

THE SELECTION PROCESS

After the interview process, the interview committee will recommend a candidate to the superintendent for employment. In the event the interview committee does not feel it can recommend any candidate for employment, the employment process will continue. A successful candidate will be notified and given instructions regarding acceptance of the position for which he/she has applied. All new employees are subject to a State mandated background check. Hiring is contingent upon the results of that background check. The administrator will also notify unsuccessful candidates who were selected for interview.
