Qualifications
Required Qualifications: Years of required experience indicated below are full-time equivalent years. Full-time equivalent experience means that any experience where working hours were less than 40 hours per week will be prorated in order to meet the equivalency of full-time. We would calculate this by looking at the total hours worked per week, divide this by 40, and then multiply by the total number of months worked. Examples of the proration calculations are:
30 hours worked per week for 20 months: (30/40) x 20 months = 15 months full-time equivalent
20 hours worked per week for 12 months: (20/40) x 12 months = 6 months full-time equivalent
Experience for both required and desired qualifications can be gained through various combinations of formal professional employment, education, and volunteer experience. See below for how you may qualify. A total of eight (8) years of experience and/or education as described below: Experience with Civil Rights Programs, using an equity lens in analyzing polices, laws, rules, or regulations, and leading others in administering Civil Rights Programs. Civil rights program experience may include civil rights investigation, law, or research; other non-discrimination efforts; or planning, implementing, or directing work in any of the following areas:
