Prior to the adoption of CP 3-10 on 01/19/2010, Policy 3-10 read as follows.

ADMINISTRATIVE POLICY 3-10


DISTRIBUTION:    ALL DEPARTMENTS

SUBJECT:         INTERNAL RECRUITING

PURPOSE:         To identify those positions in the City Service for which job openings                      
                                       shall normally be advertised exclusively to existing City employees in
                                       accordance with Chapter 17 of the Lawton City Code.

BACKGROUND:    Chapter 17 of the Lawton City Code establishes City of Lawton
                                       personnel policies.  The City Code authorizes the City Manager to
                                       identify certain positions in the City Service for a seven (7) calendar day
                                       exclusive recruiting period.

POLICY/
PROCEDURES:     A.  The City Manager shall designate certain positions for job
                                              openings that shall normally be advertised only to existing City
                                              employees for seven (7) calendar days. Changes to the list, as job  
                                              requirements change, may be made at the request of a  
                                              Department Director, with the approval of the Human           
                                              Resources Director and the City Manager.  The Human
                                              Resources Department shall provide copies of the revised lists
                                              to all departments as changes occur.

B.   Existing employees may submit an application during a        
       designated exclusive recruiting period by completing an internal
       application form provided by the Human Resources Department
       for such purpose. The Human Resources Department must receive  
       completed internal application forms no later than the  
       closing date established by the job announcement.

                                   C.   The Human Resources Department must ensure that internal
                                             applications from employees who meet minimum position
                                             qualifications are forwarded to the interviewing authority where the
                                             vacancy exists for preliminary screening.  Preliminary screening
                                             serves two purposes:  

(1)    Provides information on which to base a decision to fill the position with an internal applicant or to initiate external recruiting for the position.   

(2)    Provide criteria for evaluating the relative qualification of the applicants.  

After preliminary screening, the Human Resources Department shall certify and refer the number of applications to the interviewing

authority requested in the job requisition.  The Human Resources Director may refer the application of any qualified applicant to the interviewing authority for interview and consideration.  Those selected for an interview shall be determined using the criteria established by the interviewing authority during preliminary screening. All applicants referred to the interviewing authority shall be interviewed and considered for appointment to fill the vacancy. The reason (s) for rejection of referred applicants must be recorded in writing by the interviewing authority.   


           D.  All appointments for employment must be approved by the  
                  Human Resources Director and the City Manager.
