How You Will Be Evaluated:
The full selection process may include the following components:
- Application and resume review

This is not an offer of employment. The tryout provides a realistic job preview to better understand the work environment, the work activities, and the performance expectations. Candidates will be compensated for their time during the job tryout.
Not all applicants will progress through the entire selection process; only those applicants identified as most qualified for the job will be invited to the next step in the process. Individuals who receive a conditional job offer will also be required to complete a background check and a drug screen.
Having a criminal history does not automatically disqualify candidates from employment.
