INTRODUCTION

Welcome to the Chicago State University Human Resources System. The Office of Human Resources has

implemented this system in order to automate many of the paper-driven aspects of the employment application

process.

You will use this system to:

1) Review Position Description

2) Review Postings/Requisitions

3) Search and Review Applicants

4) Communicate electronically with HR Administrators, Hiring Managers, Applicants, and others involved

in your hiring process

5) Perform Evaluations on Employees

The system is designed to benefit you by facilitating:

Faster processing of employment information

Up-to-date access to information regarding all of your Postings and Positions

More detailed screening of Applicants’ qualifications – before they reach the interview stage

The Office of Human Resources has provided this training material to assist with your understanding and use of

this system. It is important that you:

Read all sections in its entirety prior to performing the action.

Pay special attention to notes that follow the stop icon and the post-it note icon

Web Browser The HR System is designed to run in a web browser over the Internet. The system supports browser versions of

Netscape 4.7 and above and Internet Explorer 4.0 and above. However some of the older browser versions are

less powerful than newer versions, so the appearance of certain screens and printed documents may be slightly

askew. The site is best viewed in Internet Explorer 5.5 and above.

Security of Applicant Data

To ensure the security of the data provided by applicants, the system will automatically log you out after 60

minutes if it detects no activity. However, anytime you leave your computer we strongly recommend that you

save any work in progress and Logout of the system by clicking on the logout link located on the top left side of

your screen.
