APPENDIX B
A Consistent Look for iRecruitment and External J ob Postings
Guidelines for Creating a Default J ob Posting Abbreviated Version
1. Format- Use 10 pt Arial font (unless the site does not allow Rich Text formatting). If
copying/pasting from MS Word to the posting, first Select All text in the document
(Edit>Select All) and choose Format>Font>Arial and 10pt font.
2. Job Title- List this in a way that uses a commonly searched job title, reflects the location
of the position, and/or identifies the shift, if applicable. EX: Direct Support Professional,
Berwyn, PA, FT, 3 11 PM, Tues-Sat; or Food Service Support, Orlando, FL, every other
Weekend, PT, 7 am 6 PM. The title should be modified to be job specific (it can be
something other than the Oracle job title, and should be what you wish to be auto fed to
CareerBuilder, DEA and TMJ ).
3. Company Profile- a brief introduction to Devereux that should be included in each job
posting:
Devereux is a leading nonprofit behavioral health organization that supports many of the
most underserved and vulnerable members of our communities. Founded in 1912 by
Helena Devereux, we operate a comprehensive national network of clinical, therapeutic,
educational, and employment programs and services that positively impact the lives of
tens of thousands of individuals and families every year. We help empower children and
adults with intellectual, emotional, developmental, and behavioral challenges to lead
fulfilling and rewarding lives. Our Philosophy of Care operates under the core principles
of Individualized Services; Effective and Accountable Services; and Positive, Behavioral
Approaches.
4. Organizational Profile- a brief introduction to the Center. This is Center-specific
information should be developed by the Center. The introduction should be kept to a
maximum of 4-5 sentences, should briefly describe Center services, and should include
some eye-catching Employment Value Proposition (EVP) information. Why should a
candidate consider working at this center? What is the appeal (location, small town
community / proximity to large city? availability of an abundance of recreational activities,
scenic / historic location, etc.)?
Sample:
The Pennsylvania ID/D Center, founded in 1948, is located on 80 acres in West Chester,
Pennsylvania in scenic Chester County, approximately 35 miles west of Philadelphia.
The Center is part of Devereuxs Pennsylvania treatment network and provides
comprehensive and high quality therapeutic treatment, educational and support services
to children, adolescents and families. Services include I/DD, DBD, Autism, and Treatment
Family programs for individuals aged 6 to 21. These services are delivered by a diverse
work force of over 475 dedicated and talented employees, who are supported by a strong
team of local and national resources.
5. Detailed Description- includes position summary and responsibilities. Depending on the
length of the Detailed Description, the Center may opt to use the Organizational profile as
part of the J ob Summary (will be auto fed to CB, DEA and TMJ ). It should be noted that
Detailed Descriptions that are too long may be cut off when auto fed.
a). Detailed Descriptions (job summary) should be enhanced by including EVP
information such as:
87
From the candidates perspective whats in it for me? Why should I apply
for the job?
J ob stretch / Career Objectives / Goals
Program size and population, confirm location, availability of public transportation if
applicable, the shift.
Where do I fit into the org chart? (this is an entry level job, etc.)
Training Opportunities
Future career potential at Devereux
b). Insert 8-10 job-specific keywords at the end of the Detailed Description

APPENDIX C
Defining the Employment Value Proposition (EVP)
A complete understanding of the job is essential for a successful recruitment effort. The EVP
must clearly describe real needs and clarify job expectations. To ensure an efficient and
productive sourcing effort, a number of questions should be asked of the Hiring Manager by the
Recruiter, prior to commencement of the sourcing process. It is recommended that the EVP be
created in conjunction with the development of the Service Level Agreement (SLA).
Benefits of Creating an EVP:
A good EVP summarizes the challenges, projects, growth opportunities, learning experiences,
and the type of work that needs to be done.
o The written form of the EVP (job posting / announcement) should be so interesting that
just reading it compels the candidate to apply for the job. Successful sourcing activities
require deep job knowledge to attract top talent.
o The Recruiters ability to create a compelling job posting / announcement, or convince a
candidate who is on the fence to move forward, comes from having a comprehensive
understanding of the job.
o J ob knowledge also allows the Recruiter to understand what the benefits are for the
candidate (i.e., professional, growth, and /or stretch opportunities). Otherwise, all that is
left is compensation and benefits, which in this market, are not nearly enough.
o Getting everyone on the interview team to agree to the focus of the EVP establishes a
common framework to assess competency, motivation, and fit.
Questions to Ask the Hiring Manager:
1. Why would someone who is good at this type of work want this particular job?
2. What does this job offer that is unique, or makes it most attractive to a potential
candidate?
3. What does the selected candidate need to do in the job to be considered successful /
outstanding?
4. What will the selected candidate learn in this role, and what is the expected outcome of
his/her professional growth?
5. Why would a candidate want to work in this role at your Center / Devereux, rather than at
a competitor?
6. Why do people come to work at your Center and why do they stay?
a. Is it Devereuxs cutting edge industry research and product/service
development?
b. Career growth opportunities?
c. Industry reputation?
d. Work/life balance?
e. Benefits?
f. Training?
g. Others?
7. How does the employee value proposition differentiate Devereux from its competitors?

APPENDIX D
Applicant Status Changes
To ensure consistency among Centers for reporting purposes, listed below are the
recommended reasons / situations for using each Status:
- Active- online application has been submitted, no action has been taken by Recruiter yet.
- Not Qualified - Resume was reviewed. Candidate does not meet the minimum qualifications for
the position / have needed skills and/or experience. Changing status generates a workflow
notification to Applicant to notify him/her of status.
-Referred to Manager- Applicant information has been screened by the Recruiter and forwarded
to Hiring manager as a viable candidate for his/her consideration. Recruiter is waiting for Hiring
Manager feedback.
-Referred to Other Job- applicant background is good, but not for position applicant applied for.
Recruiter applies candidate to another job at Center, or uses iRecruitment to refer applicant to
Recruiter at another Center.
-Reserve- Resume has been reviewed, phone screen may have occurred. Recruiter places this
Applicant's resume in the "maybe" category. Meets minimum qualifications, but other Applicants
have higher level of skills and / or experience. May be considered, pending the results of the
interviews with more highly qualified candidates.
- Phone screen- Indicates that a Phone screen has occurred or has been scheduled.
-First Interview - Indicates that an interview has occurred or is scheduled.
-Second Interview- follows First Interview (if this is Center procedure), and indicates that a 2nd
interview has occurred or has been scheduled. If Applicant is acceptable, Hiring Manager notifies
Recruiter (HR staff depending on Center procedure) to check references/conduct background
screening.
-Not Selected- applicant was phone screened / interviewed; however, applicant was not selected
for this vacancy, but may or may not be considered for another Vacancy. Does not generate a
workflow notification.
-Checking References - background screening, reference checks are underway.
-Offer- job offer has been extended
-Accepted- Recruiter (HR staff depending on Center procedure) changes status to Accepted as
soon as Candidate accepts the job offer.
-Rejected - selected applicant is disqualified post-offer (background screening, drug test, failed
physical exam).
-Position Filled used to notify applicants that another candidate has been selected. Changing
status generates a workflow notification to applicant to notify him/her of status.
-Terminate Application - This status terminates the application in both HRMS and iRecruitment.
Recruiters are not to use this status as it is used primarily to terminate old applications by the
System Administrator.
