Intro
The employee will have an active Employee ID number in EDB (Employee Data Base). When an employee is rehired following his or her separation, most of the existing data displayed on the screens in the bundle is generally current and may not need to be updated. However, all existing data must be reviewed and updated as necessary and appropriate based on the new appointment.
There are several steps in the rehire process that need to be followed. Questions regarding the recruitment and appointment process should be directed to the analyst in your dean’s office.
All fields that should be considered for data entry are listed. Many fields were fully defined in the New Hire bundle. Comments pertaining specifically to rehire are included below.
