PROPOSAL WRITING COMPONENTS - HOW TO WRITE "PERSONNEL” SECTION

The personnel section of a proposal should show that the persons who will be assigned or hired to implement project activities have the skills and experience necessary for a successful program. 

The proposal should summarize the project manager’s qualifications for leadership, focusing on experiences and skills pertinent to the project. 

It should cite other projects the project manager has operated successfully, and any specific training he or she has had that is relevant to the project’s goals. 

The proposal also should profile other project staff members, offering brief sketches of their relevant experience. 

These profiles should be shorter than that of the project manager and should highlight only the education and experience that qualifies each candidate. 

If staff have not been designated, the proposal should describe the process for hiring per- sonnel. 

The goal is to convince the reader that the project will recruit and hire highly qualified persons to staff the project. 

Therefore, the proposal should: 

1. Briefly describe positions, including job qualifications, roles and responsibilities, and the education level required (i.e., high school, college, graduate level). Full job descriptions can be placed in the appendix. 

2. Outline plans for advertising positions.The outline should specify publications, letters, and other postings for the jobs. 

3. If applicable, identify two or three recruitment strategies such as interagency advertisements, conferences, or personnel recruiters.

4. Identify the team that will conduct interviews.The interview team should be composed of individuals with expertise in the area addressed by the project.

5. Explain how the final hiring decision will be made and by whom.
