Our process
- After the closing or first review date, committee members screen all the applications and meet to determine whether the applicant pool is adequate enough to proceed on to interviews. If so, they will select applicants to interview.
- Applicants identified for an interview will receive a phone call inviting them for the interview on a specified date and time as determined by the committee.
- When the position is filled, candidates who interviewed will be notified by telephone. Letters will be sent to all other applicants.
- If the position is not filled after the interviews, one of several things may happen:
- the committee may decide to return to the pool to screen again and decide on another set of applicants to interview.
- the position may be re-advertised.
- the search may be postponed to a later date or abandoned until further notice.
- In the event of any of the above happening, applicants will be notified by mail.
Note:
- As our process requires the decisions and input of several people, it is not always possible to give a definite time frame as to when interviews will take place.
- Our Web site will give updates on the status of the search. You may also e-mail jobstatus@socc.edu or call us (541) 888-7115 to check on the status of the search.
- Federal regulations require that all documents submitted be retained by the college for two years. No submitted materials will be returned and/or duplicated. We require a new application for each position applied for, and it is advisable that you keep a copy for your own records.
