General Circular No. 001582

 

To:                   Heads of State Agencies and Human Resource Directors

 

Subject:           Clarification of Appointment Date for QUEST Jobs

 

Issue Date:       October 14, 2004

 

 

The current Guidelines for Agencies on “How to Fill a Clerical Job Using QUEST” do not specify the earliest date an appointment may be effective. With this general circular we are establishing the following standard.

 

The earliest an applicant can be appointed to a QUEST vacancy is the day after the job posting has closed.  This clarification to the guidelines will be updated on the HR Info website. 

 

If you have any questions about this general circular you may contact Jean Jones, Staffing Administrator at 225-342-8536.

 

Sincerely,
