Search Process Training - Anyone serving as Chair of a search committee is required to attend Search Process Training. If you cannot attend one of the three scheduled sessions contact Brittany Adrian at 389-1223 to schedule an individual session.
Affirmative Action Training - Affirmative Action training, by the Director of Affirmative Action, with each search committee is required for all searches. Weekly drop-in training sessions will be scheduled and individual Affirmative Action trainings can be arranged by calling 389-2986.
Applicant Tracking - There is a new way to track all applicant information that will make it easier and more efficient for Search Chairs to coordinate the compilation and recording of search activities. We have developed a Screening Summary Report Form for your use to better track the status of all applicants throughout the process. This will avoid multiple submissions of the same information throughout the process.
This handbook sets forth the process for conducting searches for faculty, administrative faculty and administrators at Minnesota State Mankato. These processes are designed to accomplish the following:
Compliance with the search process is mandatory. Any requests for exceptions must be sought and approved in advance of implementation.
This Handbook is designed to describe the process, the reasons behind the process, and best practice information for implementation of the processes. Replication of materials for sharing with Search Committee members is encouraged. The Supplemental Personnel Data for Affirmative Action Recruitment form is not to be reproduced from this Handbook for mailing to applicants. These forms are postage-paid, self-mailers and are to be ordered from University Stores, catalog number #48021.
