Dual Career Couples Employment
Assistance Program
Steps to Receive Recruitment
Assistance
-
Brochures describing the Dual Career Couples
Program (DCCEAP) and
Notification of
Appointment forms are sent to search committee chairs for each position
recruitment advertisement received by the Program Coordinator.
-
Include the (DCCEAP)
brochure in all recruiting packets, encouraging discussion of spouse/partner
hiring needs as early as possible in the recruiting process. (For brochures,
call 704-687-6363 or e-mail bgreene@uncc.edu.
-
When there is a spouse/partner hiring need,
make contact with the Program Coordinator, Barbara Greene, at 704-687-6363
or bgreene@uncc.edu.
Provide as much information as you have regarding the employment needs.
If you have a résumé or c.v., fax or e-mail it. Be sure to
mention if and where you've already circulated the résumé.
-
If the couple is making a visit to UNC
Charlotte, you may arrange a meeting of the spouse/partner with the DCCEAP Coordinator. Please make arrangements with the Coordinator in
advance of the visit. Otherwise, inform the spouse/partner that he or
she should contact the Program Coordinator directly to initiate services.
-
The Program Coordinator will consult with the
spouse/partner to determine employment needs, assist with a resume rewrite,
and market the spouse/partner to employers both internal and external to UNC
Charlotte. Continuous assistance will be provided until employment is
secured, or for up to one year. You are encouraged to check on the
progress of the spouse/partner's search at any time.
-
Keep the DCCEAP Coordinator apprised of
the success or failure of your recruiting efforts. Understand that
some recruitment efforts are not successful. It is often difficult to
synchronize your recruiting efforts and deadlines with acquisition of
employment for the spouse/partner.
What To Tell Your Candidates About the Dual
Career Network
-
The University of North Carolina at Charlotte
recognizes that career decisions are influenced by family considerations.
The Dual Career Couples Employment
Assistance Program has been jointly developed by the Office of the
Provost, the University Career Center, and the Department of Human
Resources to address some of the special employment needs and concerns
of dual career couples.
-
The Dual Career Couples Program is not a placement
or an employment agency and cannot guarantee employment. This
program is designed to provide partners with the tools and information
resources needed to support their search for suitable employment.
Regardless of your partner's career stage or whether he/she is seeking
academic or non-academic employment, the Program can be an important
benefit to both of you as a dual career couple.
-
The DCCEAP works with all areas
throughout UNC Charlotte and local businesses to find employment openings.
-
The DCCEAP works with many career strands,
including teachers, IT professionals, engineers, medical personnel, writers,
academics, etc.
How the Dual Career Couples Program Works
-
Once you have hired your new faculty or
professional staff member, complete the Notification of Appointment form and
return it to the Dual Career Couples Program Coordinator. You may complete
the on-line version of the
Notification
of Appointment form and submit it via e-mail by following the
instructions on the form or return the copy that was included with the
brochures during the recruitment period.
