Florida Application
Background Check Notification
Applicants for employment must submit to and pass a level II fingerprint-based background check, including Florida criminal and national criminal records, before any job may offer will be finalized. Fingerprints will be retained at the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) for the purpose of providing notice of any subsequent modifications to my criminal history record. A copy of the criminal history record can be obtained directly from the FBI. The accuracy and completeness of any information contained in any such criminal history record may be challenged pursuant to F.S. 943.056 and Title 28, CFR, Section 16.30-34. A determination, within a reasonable time, as to the validity of any challenge is required before a final decision is made regarding the status of an employee, volunteer, contractor, or subcontractor if it is the sole factor precluding employment or unescorted access to the secure facility.
E-verify
Federal law requires all employers to verify the identity and employment eligibility of all persons hired to work in the United States. The Fifth Judicial Circuit participates in the U.S. Government’s Electronic Employment Verification Program (E-Verify) to assist in this required verification process for the state-funded positions. E-Verify is a program that electronically confirms an employee’s eligibility to work in the United States after completion of the Employment Eligibility Verification Form (I-9) upon hire within the first 3 days of employment.
