Understanding the OMNI Recruiting Process Every department s goal is to hire qualified individuals to meet its needs. This requires effective screening and recruiting methods. The OMNI system enables you to automate the recruitment process, which involves creating a job opening, submitting on-line applications, and processing an applicant through hire. The OMNI recruitment process starts with the department creating and approving a job opening to advertise a vacant position. Human Resources-Employment then reviews, final approves, and posts the opening in OMNI. The OMNI system serves as an on-line application tool. When an individual applies, an OMNI applicant record is created. There are three types of applicant records: internal, external, and former. Next, the applicants are screened and routed by your HR Recruiter. The screening-enabled system compares the applicants' qualifications against the minimum qualifications of the job posting, and places the applicants who meet the minimum qualifications in Screen status. Your HR Recruiter will then Route the applicants who screened through, as well as advise the department of any applicants required to be interviewed based on Veterans' Preference or the applicable Collective Bargaining Unit. The department then contacts applicants to interview from the list routed and schedules interviews accordingly. After the interviews are complete, the department submits interview evaluations on the records of the applicants interviewed. Based on interviewer s recommendations, the outcome of the pre-employment checks, and the salary review/approval process, the department completes the pre-employment checklist in OMNI, makes a job offer to the selected candidate, and enters the job offer into OMNI. The department is also responsible for entering disposition codes on the applicant records in their pool to denote where the candidates not chosen fell out of consideration. The job offer routes through the department's approval chain, ultimately ending up in HR's queue for review and processing in conjunction with the appointment paperwork. Once processed, an employee record/id is created in OMNI for the new employee. Procedure Scenario: In this topic, you will learn how to create a Job Opening.
