APPLICANT TESTING

All applicant testing for staff positions is administered by OHR/Employment. Any test (oral, written or physical) used for the screening and selection of applicants for staff positions at the University will be administered in accordance with the terms of the University's Affirmative Action Program. Any screening tests administered will comply with legal standards for job-relatedness, statistical reliability and validity. All tests must be approved by the Vice President of the Office of Human Resources (or designee) and the Director of Affirmative Action.

Test results may be discussed with Hiring Officers as a part of a candidate's qualifications for the position.

106.1 WAIVER OF TESTING

In the event that the Hiring Officer elects to waive the test for one applicant, it will be therefore waived for all applicants.
