CHRS Recruiting: Frequently Asked Questions

CHRS Recruiting Image

We recently updated the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) section of the CHRS Recruiting webpage. We encourage you to review this information prior to the July 8, 2020 go-live of the new recruiting system for faculty and staff.

One of the questions we get regularly is, “What does CHRS stand for?”

CHRS stands for Common Human Resources System. In the next few years, all functions currently managed in SJSU @ Work (PeopleSoft HR) will be merged into one consolidated systemwide HR database, CHRS. CHRS Recruiting is the first module of the consolidated system to be implemented.

If you have additional questions, please submit them via email to chrs@sjsu.edu.

CHRS Recruiting Training Update

CHRS Recruiting Image

Training courses for CHRS Recruiting were originally scheduled to begin this month. However, due to a shift in the overall timeline of the project, the training will now begin in June. Details are being finalized and an announcement is forthcoming.

If you previously registered for a training session, you will be contacted and given first priority to move to one of the new dates. At this time, we are planning to deliver all training remotely via Zoom. We also plan to record a session of each course and make them available online.

Your patience is appreciated as we work through these changes. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to email us at chrs@sjsu.edu.
