要求背景调查

This service should be used to request background checks and/or motor vehicle record searches for the following:

  • Graduate Assistantships (GA/TA/RA)
  • 志愿者
  • Rechecks/Annual Requirements for Youth 项目 (every 3 years) or Youth Skills Camps (annual) for current employees
  • Motor Vehicle 搜索es for required current employees (every 3 years) and 学生 (annual)

Background checks for hires processed through PeopleAdmin and TeamDynamix (兼职员工, 兼职教师 and Students) do not require a separate background check request ticket.   Requests submitted for these hires will be cancelled as they are automatically initiated by HR during the hiring process. 

Once submitted, requests are routed to HR for approval. Accepted requests are then submitted electronically to the background check vendor, HireRight. The individual will receive an email from HireRight describing how to access their website to provide the information necessary for the background check to be processed. Background checks take an average of 10 business days to be completed from the time the applicant submits their information to HireRight.

  1. 人力资源 reviews all requests. Approved requests will be submitted to the background check vendor.
  2. The applicant is sent an email from the vendor with a link to submit the information required to process the background check request.
  3. Refusal on the part of a finalist to authorize a background review will make the individual ineligible for employment.
  4. The vendor will send the completed reports to 人力资源 upon the completion of the verification process.
  5. If there is no record of criminal convictions, the HR coordinator will move the request/hire through the workflow which will send a notification to the hiring department that the process has been successfully completed.  Please note: This does not indicate that the candidate may begin working.
  6. If there is potentially disqualifying information the HR Partner will communicate results to the hiring department on set criteria as according to policy. The candidate will receive a Pre-Adverse Action Notice from the background check vendor with additional details on disputing results, FCRA权利摘要, and a copy of the background check report.
