Internal recruiting

When an appointing authority proceeds to fill a vacant classified, nontemporary position by recruiting within its agency, the appointing authority shall ensure that all employees occupying classified positions of the appointing authority or within the specified work units have the opportunity to know of and apply for the position. An appointing authority may specify a work unit or work units within the agency from which applicants may be considered. However, there is no requirement for a vacancy announcement when the transfer of an employee to a vacant position is necessary to provide a reasonable accommodation for an employee under the Americans with Disabilities Act, or to avoid a reduction-in-force during a reorganization.
