Certain paid and volunteer positions within the City have been designated as “positions of trust”. The City conducts a background investigation of applicants for such positions of trust. The investigation may include, but is not limited to: checking arrest and/or criminal conviction records, driving records, credit history, previous employment, volunteer work, and references. The City may, in its discretion, make selection and retention decisions based upon the information obtained in connection with a background investigation. Additionally, a background investigation for volunteers in such positions shall be done not less than once each year, and any other time that a supervisor deems it necessary.

Applicants for employment and volunteer opportunities who have been referred to Tandem Select for a background check may access Tandem Select's website and complete the entry for the screening process:
