Conducting an Interview


Each search committee will screen all applicants and conduct interviews with their top candidates. Below are a few important requirements to keep in mind:

  • For all Faculty (not including Lecturers) and Academic Staff job postings, the search committee must follow the Excellence in Diversity Handbook for Recruiting and Hiring.
  • For all other positions, the search committee must consist of a minimum of two people.
  • KU encourages and promotes diversity and a consistent and equitable interviewing process for all candidates.
  • Candidates selected for interview must meet all required qualifications as posted in the position announcement.

Recommendations for the Search Committee in Preparing for the Interview:

If you require supplemental activities (i.e., assessments, skill exercise, presentation) during the interview process, contact your designated SSC representative or HRM Recruiter for review, approval, and suggestions of how to format certain activities for greater accessibility (i.e., closed captioning) for all participants.
