  • Return to parent organisation: At the end of your Director term, you must rejoin your parent organisation. Consider this requirement when planning any move from your current position.
  • Information checks: GTU may check your background and submitted information at appointment or during service. False records or concealed adverse information can lead to termination.
  • Appointment decisions: The university may decide to leave the post unfilled. It can also correct, withdraw or cancel a communication if an error in the recruitment process is found, including after appointment.
  • Conduct: Canvassing by you or on your behalf can disqualify your application. Keep recruitment queries within the official communication channel.
  • Communication: GTU will use the email address entered in your form for correspondence. Recruitment updates and results will also appear on its website.
