Executive Recruitment
RECRUITION
✧ Recruit new Executives (Apprentices) by enabling the Apprentice Application on the Trello board. It should open the application in the application center. Set a close date, and publicly announce it using the template.
✧ All templates are located under #templates.
✧ Recommendations are another option, during the time periods when applications aren’t open.
✧ Seek active, dedicated Servers that correctly follow the Executive Achievement Guide located in our Community Handbook.
✧ Fill out the Executive Recommendations form, and have it reviewed by department leads or overseers.
✧ When new Executives have been accepted, either by applications or recommendations, send them the letter of acceptance, rank them, and log them onto the Trello board.
Executive Weekly Evaluations
WEEKLY EVALUATIONS
✧ Weekly, you must evaluate whether our current Executives meet their expectations and are up to our standards.
✧ Their requirements are located under the Executive Information topic on devforum.
✧ If they meet the standards given, they are to stay at their current rank.
✧ If they exceed the standards given, they are to either be promoted, or given a staff announcement highlighting their dedication.
✧ If they fail to meet the standards given, they should be issued a warning by DMs. Follow the warning policy under Executive Information, for situations that call for warning, suspending, or terminating Executives.
Promotion Procedures
PROMOTIONS
✧ All promotions must be approved by department leads or overseers.
✧ Every 2 or so weeks, promotions should be given to those deserving of one. Refer to the Executive Information page when promoting.
✧ One person must make a vote in #-voting, that contains a chosen group of Executives in which exceed the weekly standards. Refer to the Trello board for an Executive tracker.
✧ There must be at least 6 upvotes for the promotion to occur.
✧ You may counter or give your opinions regarding the vote. Discuss it with your peers.

Grievance Procedures
GRIEVANCE
✧ All grievance procedures must be approved by department leads or overseers. Note to update the Trello accordingly.

Ban & Blacklist Appeals

✧ Send them either a letter of approval or refusal, which can be located in templates.
✧ Update the Trello accordingly.
