Talent Acquisition

University recruitments are supported by the Talent Acquisition Team in Human Resources, part of the Talent Acquisition, Classification, and Compensation (TACC) team.

Our mission is to help units recruit diverse and robust pools of candidates and hire the best faculty and staff for the position. We provide guidance, consultations, tools, and resources on best practices for all stages of recruitment and hiring – from using active recruitment strategies to structuring inclusive interviews to navigating offer negotiations. We are committed to collaborative relationships with our campus partners, responsiveness to candidate needs and trends, continuous improvement, and creative solutions.

We are guided by three principles  

Competitive recruitment – Standard, expected practice is to use competitive searches to make opportunities open to all. 

Inclusive practices – From position descriptions, to job postings, to interviews, to offers – we value and seek to center equity and inclusion.  

Positive candidate experience – In designing a search process and executing it, we care about the experiences of candidates and how our processes impact them, regardless of whether they are ultimately successful candidates.
