Procedures, and Documentation. Approvals and dates will appear on FAM’s “Authorization Tab”
of the vacancy.
2. Acknowledgement of Application & the Equal Employment Opportunity Form
Enter the applicants’ name, address, e-mail and phone number to FAM. The Office of
Equal Opportunity will electronically send to, and receive back from the applicant, equal

letter that directs them to the on-line form will be forwarded through U.S. mail.
3. Interview Request
After receiving and screen applicants, complete (by reference number) FAM’s interview request.
