Cherilyn Bain is the Operations Director of Glenn Barlett Consulting Services, LLC.  Cherilyn oversees the preparation of AAPs by the firm’s analysts.  She resolves countless issues that arise with the data used to prepare the AAPs.  Most frequently these issues involve applicant, hire, promotion, and termination data needed for the critical adverse impact analyses.  Issues become particularly complex for multiple site contractors who have employees who work at one site, but report to staff at another site.  OFCCP regulations require special treatment of employees in this category.

She has intimate knowledge of the OFCCP’s Internet Applicant Regulations and works with clients to ensure that individuals are not included as applicants who do not meet the definition of an internet applicant.  Cherilyn also reviews applicant data to make certain it matches the hires during the twelve-month period prior to the AAP year.
