Job descriptions for the other employees are prepared by the executive director and approved by the board of directors. Applications are reviewed and candidates are interviewed by the executive director. The executive director then presents a candidate for hiring to the board of directors. The board and the executive director discuss and create a statement of expectations and compensation, which is then reviewed by the candidate, and then a contract is signed and dated by the new employee and executive director.”
