Position Posting Instructions

The Position Posting Request Form is the method of communicating to Human Resources that your department has a vacancy that needs to be filled.
The Position Posting Request Form is located on the Human Resources website and can be accessed from www.hra.iupui.edu by clicking on “HR Toolbox.”

A Position Posting Request Form must include an Essential Job Functions Form (EJFF)

  • An essential function is one that, if removed, would change the nature of the job.  For example, the position of Counselor includes the essential function of counseling; however, even if Counselors are required to make copies of files and forms, copying and filing are not essential functions.  

  • This form is in compliance with regulations set forth by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).  Therefore, it is imperative that the form includes the mental and physical demands required to perform the tasks.

Completing the Position Posting Request Form:

  • The person completing and sending this form to HR should be authorized to request this position be posted.  Our receipt of the Position Posting Request Form constitutes your department’s intention to fill the position and attestation that funding is budgeted and available.

  • Provide the department name, contact name, contact email and contact phone.  The contact person should be the person who will be responsible for the reviewing, interviewing and hiring process.  

  • Include the position number, FTE, title and rank as determined at the time the position was classified.

  • Insert the entire completed Essential Job Functions Form into the appropriate section of the Position Posting Request Form.  

To insert the EJFF, click inside the text box, click INSERT on the Menu Bar, click FILE, select the EJFF file and click INSERT.  
If the corresponding Essential Job Function Form is not already saved as a word document, complete the EJFF online and save as a word document.  It is recommended that departments name the document using the following format; EJFF followed by the six-digit position number.  An example would be EJFF 010abc. 

  • In the Special Posting Instructions box include any special knowledge, skills, and abilities you would like the person in this position to have.  Also, enter any special requests or information, such as an employees only posting, position located off site, one year grant funding, etc.  Internal Posting Requests should include the manner in which notification to all employees will be given.

Submitting the Forms

The Position Posting Request form must be submitted via email to your departmental Employment Consultant.  You must follow your department approval process by forwarding the form via email.  The authorized individual within the department should forward the approved form to the Employment Consultant.  If you do not know your Consultant, please contact HRA at 274-7617 for assistance.
