  4. General Hiring Steps

When you have completed your interview process and are ready to hire, these are the general steps you should follow:

  • Hiring manager makes a verbal or written offer to the student (if a background check is required, a verbal offer is preferred)
  • Student accepts

If a background check is required, complete the check first.

Background checks are required if the position works with children, handles money, or has access to keys and works in a building unsupervised. Questions about background checks or status checks can be directed to Rachel Radel at rradel@unomaha.edu.


  • Hiring Manager completes the PowerForm

The student will get their next steps after the Hiring Manager inputs the student’s information in the PowerForm


  • Verify the student’s I9

If the student has another current position on campus, the student does not need to complete another I9


  • Hiring manager completes a Personnel Action Form (PAF)

Once the PAF has been vetted by proper departmental channels, completed forms can be sent to:
Graduate Assistant and Graduate Student Worker PAFs can be emailed to Nicole Kersten at nkersten@unomaha.edu
Student Worker or Work Study PAFs can be emailed to Garrett Gassman at ggassman@unomaha.edu


  • Hiring manager should update the workflow status of each applicant to the position in PeopleAdmin
Hiring manager should email Garrett Gassman at ggassman@unomaha.edu to notify him that the position has been filled and should be closed
