Applicants that score above the natural break become candidates. Applicants that score below the natural break do not receive any further consideration. Signed Application Rating Sheets and proposed interview questions should then be forwarded to Human Resources.

The Hiring Manager (or designee) must conduct a minimum of three reference checks using the approved questions. One reference must be the candidate s current or most recent supervisor.
