University of Connecticut

Job Change Questionaire for Non-Teaching Professionals


Instructions for Completing the Job Change Questionnaire

  1. Print out the university job description found on Human Resources' web page at www.hr.uconn.edu/employment_services/clsscomp.html for the position under consideration.  Please keep in mind the following as you complete your material:
     
    • Duties that are no longer required
    • New or changed duties
    • Minimum qualifications that would be consistent with the changes in duties, not the particular qualifications of the incumbent
       
  2. Complete Parts A through I of the packet:
    Job Change Questionaire - (pdf)
    Job Change Questionaire - (Word)
     
    Caution:  Describe the position, not the employee

    • Provide detailed information on the duties performed.  Avoid generalities, such as "handles correspondence" or "acts on behalf of a manager".
    • Describe the position as it exists now, not how it previously existed or may in the future.
    • Do not dwell on limited, short-term tasks or future responsibilities.
    • Start each description with action verbs.
       
  3. Attach the following (an incomplete packet will delay the review process):
     
    • Copy of correspondence from management requesting a review of the position
    • Proposed job description
    • Up-to-date resume
    • Current organizational chart, illustrating the position's reporting/working relationships with other positions within the unit/department.  Include titles only and UCP levels where applicable.

Following an initial review, an appointment for an on-site desk audit may be scheduled.  Additional information, if needed, can be provided at that time.
