The UW posts all staff job openings on its website <a href=\"https:\/\/hr.uw.edu\/jobs\/\">uw.edu\/jobs <\/a>as well as on a number of job boards. Hiring managers can use additional tools, such as social media sites, to further amplify job postings.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"job-posting-sites-used-for-staff-recruitments\">Job posting sites used for staff recruitments<\/h4>\n<p>To support UW&#8217;s recruiting efforts, all jobs that are posted on the UW website also appear on DirectEmployers which includes the <a href=\"https:\/\/usnlx.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">National Labor Exchange<\/a> and all of the members of the DirectEmployers Job Syndication Alliance. Job postings also appear on individual state job boards when the job is located within that state. UW&#8217;s membership in HERC (Higher Education Recruitment Consortium) also advances recruiting efforts by promoting UW jobs through the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hercjobs.org\/regions\/higher-ed-careers-washington-oregon-idaho-montana-alaska\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">HERC job board<\/a> and its affiliate sites.<\/p>\n<h5>Optional external advertising<\/h5>\n<p>While external advertising is optional, departments are encouraged to use advertising approaches to target a specific discipline, professional associations, or networks. When adopting these advertising approaches, hiring managers should keep in mind the distinction between a job posting and job advertisement and ensure all job advertisements include required disclosures.<\/p>\n<h5>Social media platforms<\/h5>\n<p>Using your department\u2019s social media platforms is a great way to advertise job openings and will help you reach a broader audience. Connect through your own personal network via LinkedIn or work with your department\u2019s communications staff to share opportunities through your department\u2019s social media channels or other networking and outreach platforms such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/?lang=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">X (Twitter)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Facebook<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/\">Instagram<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/\">YouTube<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/joinhandshake.com\/\">Handshake<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eventbrite.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Eventbrite<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.meetup.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Meetup<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Use of social media for recruitment must adhere to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washington.edu\/marketing\/social-media-best-practices\/social-media-guidelines\/\">social media guidelines of the University<\/a> and is not to be used for pre-employment hiring decision-making.<\/p>\n<p>You can also partner with your <a href=\"https:\/\/hr.uw.edu\/contact-us\/\">Recruiter<\/a> to help determine what options may be best your team.<\/p>\n<p class=\"uwhr-toc-top-btn\"><a href=\"#toc\">Return to top<\/a><\/p><h4 id=\"job-advertisement-requirements\">Job advertisement requirements<\/h4>\n<p>All job advertisements must include an equal opportunity employer <a href=\"https:\/\/ap.washington.edu\/eoaa\/equal-opportunity-and-accommodation-statements\/\">announcement<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, <a href=\"https:\/\/hr.uw.edu\/talent\/hiring-process\/recording-the-hiring-process\/documenting-recruiting-hiring\/\">units are required<\/a> to keep a copy of job advertisements and a <a href=\"https:\/\/hr.uw.edu\/talent\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2020\/12\/Advertising-Tracking-Template-for-Departments.xlsx\">tracking log<\/a> of all external job advertisements for a specific recruitment.<\/p>\n<p>State law requires disclosure of pay, benefits, and compensation information in job postings. A job posting is any solicitation intended to recruit job applicants for a specific available position that includes qualifications for desired applicants. All job postings on UW\u2019s jobs website and on third-party sites that UW contracts with to list its postings include required pay, benefits and compensation information.<\/p>\n<p>Job advertisements that do not meet the definition of job posting are not required to include wage, benefits, and compensation information as long as they do not advertise for a specific position and do not include qualifications for desired applicants.<\/p>\n<p class=\"uwhr-toc-top-btn\"><a href=\"#toc\">Return to top<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hiring managers should consider the following options when deciding where and how to advertise open requisitions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":49,"featured_media":0,"parent":935,"menu_order":30,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_lmt_disableupdate":"no","_lmt_disable":"no","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-958","page","type-page","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","search_bucket-page"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 -
