Cornerstone is the university’s Applicant Tracking System (ATS). It is the web-based tool that job applicants use to browse and apply for open faculty and staff positions at the university, and which search committees and HR professionals use internally to manage recruitment workflows.
In addition to Cornerstone, the university uses JDXpert to create and maintain job descriptions. JDXpert is integrated with Cornerstone to allow for a seamless process from job description to posting. It also features a searchable repository of job descriptions, templates, and electronic signature capabilities. These features streamline the process of collecting signed job descriptions and allow for greater unit ability to update and modify job descriptions.
