New Position Compensation Review Request Form
A new job position request must be submitted to the Compensation Department by selecting the New Position option of the Compensation Request Form (online form) to initiate the review process. This form is to be completed by a supervisor requesting evaluation of a new position.
New positions must have a written job description and must be classified in the college's salary grade system prior to opening and posting the position. The Compensation Department will establish the salary range classification of new positions based on job qualifications and required skills, job duties and responsibilities defined by the college, and market value for the job.
Please note: Requests for new positions will not be accepted during the period of May 15 to Aug. 31 due to end-of-fiscal-year restraints. For extenuating circumstances, email hr_compensation@collin.edu.
Position Reclassification Request Form
A position reclassification request must be submitted to the Compensation Department using the Reclassification Request option of the Compensation Request Form (online form) to initiate the review process. This form is to be completed by a supervisor requesting reclassification of an existing position.
HR will only consider requests for reclassification of positions when:
- A department is being reorganized,
- The duties of the positions are being shifted, and there will be significant and sustained changes to the position, and/or
- The college is unable to recruit qualified applicants for the position because of
its current classification.
Please note: Requests for reclassifications will not be accepted during the period of May 15 to Aug. 31 due to end-of-fiscal-year restraints. For extenuating circumstances, email hr_compensation@collin.edu.
Job Description Change Request Form
A job description review may be requested by a manger to change an existing job description at any time during the year. Requests must be submitted to the Compensation Department by the supervisor of the position (rather than the person in the position). Use the Job Description Review Request Form (online form) to submit a request.
Note: Compensation will review Compensation Review and Job Description Change Requests in the order in which they are received and will send notification of the results to the submitting manager within five business days.

View the HR Compensation CougarWorks Student Intern Job Description Template and Review Process (PDF) to learn how to create a job description specific to a department and/or functional area for positions unique to Collin College students.
These are the steps to complete the review process:

This online form provides the basis for the manager to create a job description specific to a department/functional area for positions unique to Collin College students that aligns with specific programs at the college.

- New Workday Job Profile Creation: Upon completion of the review, a job profile will be created in Workday for the manager to initiate the job requisition process.
