Dear Colleagues,

          Today's ARRL Letter will include the posting of the ARRL

CEO Position.  It is anticipated that the Officers, Directors and

Vice Directors will be actively participating in the process of soliciting

applications from the Amateur Radio community.  Please

remember that we are dealing with a significantly sensitive

HR issue and that any submital of an application does engender

the requirement for privacy in the handling of any information

provided by the applicants.

           At a bare minimum all Board members should advise

potential candidates to submit their applications using the

methods and manner mentioned in the job posting and that

all submission of applications must be done directly to the

HR Professionals at Headquarters. Should any procedural

questions arise in this process please advise anyone that

contacts you with questions to contact Ms. Diane Middleton,

W2DLM, at our Newington, Connecticut office.

           It is anticipated that all Board members will make

an effort to encourage qualified candidates to make an

application. As your part in this process the CEO Search

Committee is requesting that we be able to track contacts

made by Board members with potential candidates. When

a contact is made with a potential candidate it is requested

that you let the Search Committee know the identity of that

potential candidate so that the Committee can track that

candidate in the application process.  It is requested that

all Board members send a short email to W9XA@arrl.org

with the name and call of anyone you personally solicit or

encourage to submit an application.  The purpose of the

tracking is to ensure that all applications are received and

considered properly, and that none are overlooked or lost

in the submital process. In that email please use the subject

line  "CEO Search Candidate",  a callsign and name is all

that we need to track the submission.  All applications and

other supporting information needs to be submitted directly

to HQ.

        Please refer any potential candidate to the ARRL website

at;   http://www.arrl.org/employment-opportunities

          Thank you in advance for your efforts in aiding this

process.

                         73, Kermit Carlson W9XA
