The University is required by the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) guidelines to maintain specific summary information about the search process, applicants and hires. The Chair of the search committee is responsible for ensuring that complete records are kept during the search, and that all search files are kept for five years from the dates of appointment of the candidate selected.
Effective immediately - the University is updating the manner in which faculty search information is submitted to the Office of Equal Opportunity. The following data requirements must be adhered to and submitted in total to the Faculty Diversity Officer for the granting of Affirmative Action approval. Failure to comply could have costly implications for any contracts with the federal government.
To meet OFCCP reporting requirements, we must (1) distinguish job seekers from qualified job applicants, (2) state the qualifications for the position in its advertising, (3) record data regarding voluntary disclosure of race, sex and veteran status, and (4) retain these records for five years from the dates of appointment of the candidate selected. The information that has been reported on forms #3B and #3B1, will now be submitted in an excel spreadsheet and sent electronically to facultydiversity@case.edu. The full explaination of the amended instructions can be found on the AA Forms page. Please contact Amanda Shaffer (368-8874) if you have questions or need assistance with this process.
All candidates applying for faculty positions at Case Western Reserve University must receive an email (where an email address is available) requesting their voluntary participation in the collection of affirmative action data. This page contains the link to the survey and sample email text.
Links to various resources and institutions to increase the scope of one's search. Links are sorted into the categories of General Diversity Links, College of Arts and Sciences, Arts and Sciences by Specific Departments, School of Dental Medicine, School of Engineering, School of Law, Mandel School of Applied Social Sciences, Medical School General, Medical School by Specific Departments, School of Nursing, and Weatherhead School of Management.
The Case Faculty Search Guidelines help the search committee navigate the administrative forms and the process of advertising, recruitment, and candidate visits.
