It is the policy of the University of Dayton to support the efforts of employees to transfer and/or advance to positions for which they are qualified and which meet their career interests and objectives. All University employees are encouraged to apply for positions for which they are interested on a promotion or transfer basis. Supervisors are encouraged to give serious consideration to internal applicants in the search process. Also, supervisors must allow employees within their department opportunities to seek transfers to other departments. An atmosphere conducive to exploring promotion or transfer must always be maintained.

            In determining an employee's qualifications for promotion or transfer, the supervisor should consider but not be limited to the following factors: (a) experience, (b) past performance, (c) training, (d) education, (e) skills and abilities.

            Ordinarily, position openings are posted for at least ten (10) working days before being filled. For additional information, see the Promotion Policy. Position vacancies and opportunities for advancement are announced in the following ways:

1. Job postings are placed on the bulletin board outside the Office of Human Resources, St. Mary's Hall Room 118.

2. Jobline (ext. 3377). Hearing Impaired TDD # 299-4473

3. Web site http://www.udayton.edu/~hr/

             Current University of Dayton employees interested in being considered for a position opening may chose to either (a) submit an updated resume, (b) complete a new application for employment or (c) complete a Response to Job Posting form, as well as providing any additional credentials for review to the office of human resources prior to the closing date of the posted job.

            Persons who wish to discuss promotion or transfer possibilities should call the Office of Human resources (ext. 2541) for an appointment. In addition, a representative is available to assist all University employees in matters involving career counseling and testing. The representative can be reached by calling the Career Services Center (ext. 2077).

            In the event a University of Dayton employee transfers from one department to another, reasonable notice to the immediate supervisor in the current department is expected as defined under the section entitled Separation from Service—Voluntary.  The last workday in the employee’s current department is considered to be the regularly scheduled workday immediately preceding the start date of the position in the new department.
