Available positions
This is how you make an application
-
To start your application, you need to register an account in our recruitment system ReachMee. You can do this in two different ways:
- Click the Login or Register button above the list of available jobs.
- Click the Apply button at the bottom of each advertisement.
Having an account means that you get an overview of your applications and can reuse information you previously registered.
-
After you have registered and logged in, you fill out your application with associated attachments. In each advertisement it is stated which attachments your application must contain. Your complete application must be at our disposal no later than 23.59 on the last day of application (Swedish time). After that, the advertisement is closed and is then no longer in the list of current ads. You can find the advertisements to which you submitted an application in the recruitment system even after the application deadline has passed.
If you have documents that cannot be attached electronically directly to the application, please contact the HR department via email, hr-specialister.hr@his.se. The publications must be at the University's disposal no later than one week after the application deadline.
When you have submitted your application, you will receive a confirmation to your e-mail address. If you do not receive a confirmation your application has not been submitted.

-
You can edit your application until the end of the application period, after which it is locked and cannot be edited. If you wish to supplement your application after the application deadline, you can send an email to hr-specialister.hr@his.se.
-
The information you have provided will be available to HR and the recruitment group appointed and – in the recruitments where it is specified – also external experts.
The University of Skövde is a state authority, thus applications submitted to the authority become public documents when they arrive at the authority. Public documents can be released if someone requests them, if there are no obstacles according to the Publicity and Confidentiality Act.
Applications received are saved for two years after the recruitment process is completed. This is in accordance with Section 2 of the National Archives' constitutional collection (RA-FS 2004:1).
-
If you have protected personal data, you should contact the University by phone, +46 (0)500-48 80 00 (switchboard), and ask to speak to an HR specialist. You will then receive special instructions for your application.
You should be careful about what information you provide in your application. Only include information that is relevant to the current position.

The selection process
When the application period has expired, the recruitment team goes through all applications received. We then select a number of people for interview or expert review. The selection is made based on the qualification requirements and assessment criteria stated in the advertisement.
If you are one of the applicants we want to meet for an interview, we will contact you. The interview can either take place on Campus or digitally. After the interview, we will contact your reference persons. Supplementary interviews or tests may also occur depending on the position.
External-expert investigation
The recruitment process for teaching positions follows the same principles as other types of employment, but the process looks a little different and may take longer because peer review is often part of the process.
After the application period has expired, the next step in the process is peer review and when it is completed, we will get back to you if you proceed to the test lecture and interview.
According to the University of Skövdes appointment procedure, teaching positions include professor, visiting professor, assistant professor, lecturer, assistant lecturer, assistant lecturer and adjunct staff. The specific rules, authorisations and assessment grounds that apply to each teaching appointment are stated in the University's appointment procedure.
Appeal of employment decisions
Decisions on employment are announced on the University's notice board in building G. Everyone who has applied for the position will also be notified of the decision. If you have been to an interview with us, you will be notified by phone or email, others by email.
It is possible to appeal a decision on employment at a state authority. In such a case, an appeal must be submitted no later than three weeks after the day the decision was posted on the authority's notice board. Please note that employment decisions for Ph.D. student positions cannot be appealed.
Only those applicants who are not offered a position can appeal the decision. Information about this is given in the decision on employment which is posted on the authority's notice board.
