Applying to position opportunities over the summer
As the university continues transitioning to the UAT operating model, many new positions are being created and will be posted throughout the summer months.

New onboarding resources
Supervisors, HR staff and new and transitioning employees have access to new onboarding resources. These changes were developed as part of SET through the UniForum satisfaction survey, and will help provide faculty and staff with an experience that builds connection to their team and institution, increases role satisfaction, and improves retention.
Updated FAQs from the town hall
In response to the questions submitted for the June 15 Town Hall, we’ve updated several FAQ’s.
Clarification about PCard and credit card use
We incorrectly communicated that PCards had replaced personal credit cards for expense reimbursement. It is not mandatory to use a PCard, and expenses will continue to be reimbursed on personal credit cards. In the near future, personal credit card expenses will not be accepted above $500.
