Brief Overview of the CSU Open Pool Process:
‘Open Pool’ postings are utilized to gather applications for potential job openings that may become available in a department throughout a year. Open Pools are typically used for Research Associates, Postdoctoral Fellows and Instructor positions and remain open, collecting applicants, on the CSU Jobs website for 3, 6, or 12 months. Once an applicant has applied to an Open Pool posting, their application materials will be copied over to ‘Secondary’ Open Pool postings, and reviewed every time a new vacancy becomes available.
