Searches Menu Items

The Searches drop-down menu allows the user to either search requisitions to quickly find a variety of requisition information, or search for specific Selection Documents. 

Allows user to quickly find requisitions, both currently active and those that were previously in recruitment.

Allows the user to find one of the following:

 1) All of the closing reports on which a specific applicant appears, and

 2) any position for which a closing report had been completed.

 

NOTE: Search returns will be based on system access. Therefore, the Department Coordinator will not be able to access requisitions or Selection Documents outside of their assigned departments. If additional information is needed, the Department Coordinator should contact their assigned HR Generalist to discuss.

Security Features

SPA RecruitmentWeb will allow the same user to update, submit for approval and approve if both Coordinator and Approver roles are assigned to the same user. Options for preventing this include assigning the Coordinator and Approver roles to different users within the department or making arrangements with your School or Dean-level Business Office to approve actions submitted by the Department.

Actions do not route to particular individuals but to particular roles within SPA RecruitmentWeb. So, any user assigned the relevant approval role for the Department or School/Division will receive actions for approval. If two individuals are assigned, the Approver role, both will see actions requiring approval and either can approve on behalf of the Department. Essentially, the user that approves the action first will submit the action to the next approval step. Also, at present, Department Approver and School/Dean Approver are equivalent roles. If either approve the action, it will route immediately to the assigned HR Generalist for approval.

SPA RecruitmentWeb will also allow individuals to update and submit Selection Documents on which they appear as applicants. Since these ultimately must be reviewed and approved by the assigned HR Generalist, the HR Generalists will be responsible for ensuring relevant employment laws are not violated. However, departments should do everything possible to ensure individuals do not access and/or update and submit selection documents for requisitions to which they have applied. If the user is in an approval role for a requisition to which he/she applied, consider having a second authorized individual in your department or school assigned to an approval role so they can approve these actions.

If you have questions or encounter problems processing specific actions with this restriction, please contact the HRIS Help Desk for assistance.

SPA RecruitmentWeb, as with many other HR-related systems, contains a great deal of confidential and protected information under State of North Carolina law. To comply with these laws and to protect our employees’ information from unauthorized access and identify theft, we have taken extra steps to secure physical access to SPA RecruitmentWeb. Access to the system is blocked from workstations that are not physically connected to the UNC-Chapel Hill campus network and from wireless devices including wireless-equipped laptops, whether on- or off-campus. You must use a workstation that is physically connected to the campus network (e.g., connected by wire to a network jack on your office wall) to access the SPA RecruitmentWeb system. Access from off-campus locations or personal residences, directly or via a connection to an on-campus workstation, is strictly prohibited except under highly unusual circumstances and then only with special approvals. Any requests for special arrangements should be directed to the Director of HRIS Support. Special requests for at-home access must be made under the signature of the senior administrative official of the School, College, or Division from which the request is made (e.g. Dean, Assistant Dean for Administration, Associate Vice Chancellor, etc.). Campus units/departments with off-campus University-owned or -leased space not directly connected to the campus network are permitted access and special technical arrangements can be made by contacting the Director of HRIS Support.

*Attempts to access SPA RecruitmentWeb from any off-campus location, except in the circumstances described above, will be considered a violation of University policy and may result in a suspension of all SPA RecruitmentWeb access privileges and appropriate disciplinary action. Please address any questions regarding this policy to the Director of HRIS Support.*

If you have questions or encounter problems processing specific actions with this restriction, please contact the HRIS Help Desk for assistance.

To further protect the system from unauthorized access, SPA RecruitmentWeb will automatically log the user out of the system after 60 minutes of non-activity. To continue system use, the user must be making selections and using navigation buttons at least once per hour, or be prepared to log in again before resuming work.

Correcting Errors

All actions prepared in SPA RecruitmentWeb can be edited by the user before  is clicked. If action has been submitted in error, the user should contact the next level approver and request the action be disapproved and returned to the user for correction. Once actions have been submitted to the Office of Human Resources, they cannot be corrected or updated by any of the School- or Department-level users.
