8 STARTING YOUR CAREER AT FREDERICK COMMUNITY COLLEGE We seek to hire talented people who are passionate about what they do, and who strive every day to make a difference. Recruitment and Hiring Job descriptions are developed for all College positions other than limited term employees (LTE). Supervisors must use the most current job description template found on the HR intranet site. All job descriptions are subject to review and modification by the supervisor, with approval of the Senior Leadership Team, as deemed necessary to carry out the mission of the College. Open positions are posted on the College website and advertised in appropriate media. Internal applicants are encouraged to apply. Frederick Community College is an equal opportunity employer and complies with all applicable federal and state laws and regulations regarding nondiscrimination. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment. Frederick Community College is committed to a policy of equal opportunity for all persons and does not discriminate on the basis of age, ancestry, citizenship status, color, creed, ethnicity, gender identity and expression, genetic information, marital status, mental or physical disability, national origin, race, religious affiliation, sex, sexual orientation, or veteran status in its activities, admissions, educational programs, and employment. The College reports annually to the Maryland Higher Education Commission on its progress in achieving the goals of its Cultural Diversity Plan. Application Integrity When reviewing applicants, the College relies upon accurate information in the application materials throughout the hiring process. Any material misrepresentations, falsifications, or omissions will result in the individual being excluded from further consideration. If the person has already been appointed, the employee may be separated from the College. Background Screening The College conducts Background Screenings to promote a safe work environment; protect students, employees, property, information, and the public; make prudent employment decisions based on comprehensive information; and comply with Maryland Law. Required Background Screenings must be completed (received, reviewed, and approved) prior to the first day of work, and all offers of employment and volunteer assignments are contingent upon successful completion of required Background Screenings. Background Screenings are conducted at the expense of the College. If the College denies employment or volunteer service based on Background Screening information, HR shall notify the candidate in writing in accordance with their federal Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) rights and provide a copy of the report information, a copy of their FCRA rights, and instructions for challenging the results. Candidates must notify HR of their intent to challenge their results when initially notified by HR that they are ineligible for employment or volunteer service, and challenge the results in writing within five (5) workdays, including the reason(s) why the criminal history record should not render them ineligible. HR will review the submitted information and notify the candidate of the final decision.
