Step 1: Department places and approves the SA to be hired on the smartsheet or submit via ServiceNow. Position number must be accurate for vacant position.
Step 2: SHARE Generalist will determine if the new hire needs to onboard or if the new hire can be entered into UCPath without onboarding.
Step 3: If the new hire needs to onboard, Central Onboarding will send them a DocuSign packet and set up a remote onboarding appointment.
Step 4: New hire needs to complete onboarding by the first day of the academic semester. Late onboarding may require a damage payment or create an out of compliance I-9.
Step 5: In order for the I-9 to be compliant, the new hire needs to complete section 1 of their I-9 by their first day of work and section 2 needs to be completed no later than 3 business days after the new hire’s first day of employment.
Step 6: (Oath applies to US Citizens only): If the new hire completes their DocuSign (which includes the oath) after they have begun working, then they are subject to a damage payment if have a signed oath in the last 12 months.
Step 7: SHARE HR will either process a concurrent hire or a new hire template and submit it to UCPath for approval.There may be delays for conflicting paygroups or FLSA.
**Due to the short turnarounds for SAs this step will occur after onboarding**
Step 8: UCPath approves the templates. New hire will be issued an EID.
