Section 40.03. Application for admission to roster.

 

(1)   Application form; submission; consideration. Qualified individuals who are interested in being admitted by the commission to the roster may obtain an application form from the commission. The completed application along with writing samples and references shall be transmitted to the commission as set forth in s. ERC 10.06 (1) . The commission shall review the completed applications and shall decide whether an applicant shall be admitted to the roster. The commission shall base its decision on the criteria listed in s. ERC 40.02 . After reviewing the application, the commission may interview the candidate to obtain additional information relevant to the individual's qualifications. Candidates shall provide complete and accurate information on the application and during the interview. Failure to do so may result in rejection. Individuals shall notify the commission of any changes in status which are relevant to the individual's qualifications.

(2)   Notification of application disposition. A candidate who is found to be qualified to serve on the roster shall be added to the roster if the commission determines there is a need for additional individuals to be added. Each applicant shall be notified in writing of the commission's decision and reasons.

(3)   Integrity of admission process. No candidate may attempt to influence the commission or staff members regarding admission to the roster by any improper means, including gifts or other inducements to agency personnel. However, nothing in this chapter is intended to preclude a potential applicant from requesting information or advice from the commission concerning the likelihood of the potential applicant's future admission to the roster.
