Applicant Track Form (ATF) Instructions

Applicant tracking begins when you have a benefits-eligible position that is to be filled.

The tracking of applicant data is an essential function that must be performed throughout the recruiting process for a vacancy.  An applicant is defined as a person who applies for or expresses an interest for a particular regular position that is to be filled.  An applicant may apply for a position using MCG’s standard application form or express an interest by providing a resume/CV that specifies a particular position for consideration.  All applicants who meet this definition must be tracked.

The Applicant Tracking Form (ATF) is utilized to collect applicant data. It is a basic worksheet format that consists of fields listing the various data to be included for each applicant. Only ONE vacant position is to be reported per worksheet. If an applicant is considered for more than one vacancy, the applicant data should be reported for each vacancy on a separate worksheet.

**Please note that temporary positions and non-benefits eligible position (usually FTE <0.5) do not require applicant tracking.**
