Attachment: Additional Guidance on Revisions to SHRA State Employment Application – 10.22.2025
We have received the attached follow-up information from the Office of State Human Resources on the SHRA state application requirements.
— Update from Sept. 25, 2025 follows —
Attachment: State of North Carolina Workday Application Content
OSHR has provided the attached information for the revised state employment application for our initial guidance. (The agencies are in the process of moving to a Workday environment for their ERP, so the attached information is structured with that system in mind.)
The UNC System Office has asked for additional clarification about the expectations for the university system comparable to the agency application and process improvements and has asked OSHR to schedule a time for a Q&A with university recruitment staff about these expectations. We are awaiting a final date and time for this meeting, but we wanted to share the application information with you so that you can anticipate next steps. We will send a calendar invite once it is available.
— Original message follows —
SL 2025-34 charged OSHR to streamline the application process for state employment, including reducing the amount of information required from applicants at their initial application (and identifying which information can be acquired at a later point in the application process). OSHR is continuing work on their new state employment application that by statute is due Nov. 1. We have communicated to OSHR that our institutions need to know what has changed as soon as possible so that we also can update our systems and processes, and they are aware of that time need. I am expecting that we’ll receive something within the next week, and I will share that information once it is available.
