Policy

The University attempts to fill job vacancies from within, although it has the discretion to recruit and hire outside candidates.

Once positions have been approved for replacement by the applicable executive leadership member, the Position Review Committee and the President, job postings, other than non-graded positions, are placed on our website atadelphi.edu/hr/open-positions/, unless an intradepartmental promotion takes place. Interested and qualified candidates must apply online at the Office of Human Resources website to be considered for a posted position. A University-wide email is sent out notifying the current employees of the opening and directing them to the website.
