• Why was my application automatically “screened-out“ when I submitted it?
A: In order to be “included in the inventory“ you must meet all the essential qualifications when submitting your application. Should you receive a "screened-out" message immediately after submitting your application, you have likely responded 'No' to a screening question assessing an essential qualification. If you incorrectly responded 'No' to a qualification you do in fact possess, simply retrieve your application and update your response to the screening question.
• What does it mean to be “included in inventory“?
A: When submitting your application, your status may be: Results available: included in inventory. This system-generated message that refers only to your application having been successfully submitted to the inventory.
• What does it mean when I receive a notification from PSRS stating that I have been screened-out/permanently eliminated from an inventory?
A: CINI - Human Resources Team may remove your name from the PSRS for volume-management purposes and you may receive a notification stating that you have been screened-out.
Your name may be removed permanently from the PSRS for one of the following reasons:
- You have been found qualified and do not need to undergo any of the assessments again.
- You have been exposed to the evaluation tools and have failed to meet the essential qualifications. Therefore, your application will no longer be considered as part of the selection process.
• What is random selection?
A: Random selection is a strategy that is sometimes used to manage applicant volume. It identifies a sub-sample of applicants by applying the element of chance at some point during the appointment process, using criteria identified by the hiring organization.
• How is this sub-sample of applicants determined?
A: To determine the sub-sample of applicants, the hiring organization identifies the following:
- criteria that candidates must meet; and
- the number of candidates to be selected.
With the assistance of PSRS, candidates who meet these criteria are identified and the sub-sample is randomly selected from that group.
TO NOTE:
• All communication relating to this process, including email correspondence, may be used in the assessment of qualifications.
• Random selection will be used to identify which applicants will be assessed in this appointment process.
Preference will be given to veterans and to Canadian citizens, in that order.
