Bill overview
Senate Bill 1665 aims to standardize hiring practices within Arizona state agencies. It requires agencies to use a consistent process including weighted grades based on experience and education, and formal interview panels with published scoring criteria. Candidates who are not hired have the right to appeal the decision to the State Personnel Board if the hiring process was not followed or the selection seemed arbitrary. The bill also sets a 90-day deadline for completing the hiring process, with the State Personnel Board intervening if necessary.
