be on file no later than the last day to file applications. Applications for announcements with “Continuous Recruitment
Until Needs are Met” will be accepted as long as there are vacancies. Inactive/filled announcements will be taken off
the HHSC website.

STEPS TO AN ADMINISTRATIVE REVIEW, SUBSEQUENT APPEALS: If you do not agree with a decision made

by the Employment Office as to your non-qualification or non-selection for a position, you may complete a Request
for Administrative Review form (available on the HHSC website) or you may submit a written request within twenty
(20) days from the date of your sent notice to the Regional Chief Executive Officer/Designee. Your letter requesting
the Administrative Review must include 1. The job title(s) and recruitment number(s), 2. the specific reason(s) you are
requesting the review noting if there is a statute or rule violation, and 3. any additional information you want to submit
to substantiate your request. If you do not submit your request within the twenty (20) days deadline, no
Administrative Review will be conducted. Since the Administrative Review is a prerequisite to subsequent steps,

failure to utilize this process will make you ineligible for subsequent appeals. The administrative review, formal
complaint and/or appeals hearing will not necessarily postpone the recruitment process and/or rescind a selection.

If you do not agree with the Administrative Review, you may file a Formal Complaint and then, if you are still not
satisfied, you can appeal to the HHSC Merit Appeals Board.
