COOK LEAD HAND
Overview
When you apply to this selection process, you are not applying for a specific job, but to an inventory for future vacancies. As positions become available, applicants who meet the qualifications may be contacted for further assessment.
You will be required to show how you demonstrate the essential qualifications (i.e. Occupational Certification and Experience) for the initial screening through your resume and in answering online screening questions. It is NOT sufficient to only state that the qualifications are met or to provide a listing of current or past responsibilities. Rather you must clearly demonstrate HOW, WHEN, and WHERE the qualification was met through substantiation by examples.
Information on your described skills, experience, etc. provided in screening questions should be supported by your resume. Failure to provide the above information in the format required may result in your application being rejected from the process.
How Does an Inventory Work?
Step 1:
Your application and resume (no cover letter required) is randomly selected from the inventory. Decisions on further assessment may be based on depth and breadth of experience. For all experience factors, ensure you answer the screening questions with sufficient details to allow hiring managers to fully understand the scope of your experience. A reference is required and may be contacted to validate your response.
Step 2:
You are screened in for further assessment. Managers will be screening resumes and selecting candidates to move on to the next phase. You are contacted for an interview. The interview will be to explain the job, work environment and will be used to assess the essential Competencies. This will also be your opportunity to ask any questions you may have about the work.
Step 3:
All candidates that move through to the Interview phase will be advised of your outcome in the process.
Step 4:
If you are the selected candidate, you will be contacted to complete the Security screening. Once completed, a letter of offer will be provided.
NOTE: Appointments are made on an on-going basis as requirements arise. Qualified candidates are placed in a pool, and appointments can occur for the next several years based on the results of this process.
Intent of process:
The intent of this appointment process is to staff one position on a determinate basis.
A pool of qualified candidates may be established to staff similar positions with various tenures (indeterminate, specified period, acting, casual, secondment or assignment).
