Says many applicants wait until the last minute; applications stay open until position closed; October 26 is current target date for receipt of applications
Pam Fisher, the ACCT Search Consultant retained by Yavapai Community College to help with its presidential search, who moderated the Verde Valley citizen forum August 27, said that rumors that applications for the position were down were unfounded. She explained that the ACCT did not keep records regarding total applications. Furthermore, she expects that some applicants will wait until close to the October 26 date before showing interest in the position.
The forum was devoted to providing citizen input to the Consultant from the Verde Valley on the following two questions: (1) What are the major opportunities and challenges facing Yavapai College in the next 3-5 years? (2) What would be the ideal personal and professional characteristics of the next Yavapai College president?
