Faculty Hiring Guidelines – 11:1

Faculty hiring guidelines (https://gustavus.edu/provost/facultysearches/) are provided by the Office of the Provost in order to support you at different steps in the recruiting process. These resources touch on all aspects of the search, with an emphasis on creating an effective process and minimizing bias. Topics such as forming and leading a search committee, advertising positions, sourcing minority candidates, and evaluating applicants are covered. The guidelines are reviewed and modified each year in consultation with select faculty members and staff with expertise in diversity, equity, and inclusion, as well as our Human Resources team.
