Screening Resumes

When screening and evaluating resumes, recruiter must consider the following information:
· Previous job responsibilities and past related work experience that may suggest future performance.
· Special skills and qualifications.
· Dates of employment. Staff will look for unaccounted gaps of time or conflicting dates, which may suggest instability or unsuccessful work experiences
· Salary information.
· Verifiable facts. Positions held, responsibilities, dates of employment, salary, etc.
After the close date of the recruitment, the Job Expert for the hiring department and Human Resources will screen the application forms or resumes for minimum education and qualification requirements. A recruitment date may be extended if there are no qualified candidates. Recruitments can also be open until the position is filled; in this situation, applicants are reviewed and interviewed on a regular basis until an eligible candidate can be selected and appointed to the available position.
