What is a first round interview?

If you apply for a preferred service job opening and meet the minimum qualifications, you should receive a first round interview survey. 

First round interview surveys are sent out by email the day after the job posting closes (Closing dates are found at the top of a job posting.)  These surveys are sent to the email address on your application.  You may want to check your junk or spam email folders to ensure these emails did not get routed to these folders.  You can also contact the HR Service Center at 615-741-4841 if you have not received it within one or two days of the job posting closing and while the survey is still open.  

Once the first round interview surveys are sent out, you will have four (4) calendar days, including any holidays, to complete them.  Once that four day window has ended, the surveys are closed and responses are sent to the agency where the position is located.  After the four day window has ended, first round interview surveys cannot be re-opened.
