    Credit and Conviction Histories
    If you receive a conditional job offer, you will be subject to a credit check and fingerprint check. Your credit history will be used to further determine suitability in performing specific duties and responsibilities of the job for which you have received a conditional job offer. If a history of late payments, collections, or bankruptcy exists, you will be provided an opportunity to present any evidence of rehabilitation that may mitigate the conflict, except when federal or state regulations bar employment in specific circumstances. Having a negative credit history does not automatically preclude you from a job with the City of Concord.

    Your fingerprints will be sent to the California Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). The resulting report of your conviction history (if any) will be used to determine whether the nature of your conviction conflicts with the specific duties and responsibilities of the job for which you have received a conditional job offer. If a conflict exists, you will be asked to present any evidence of rehabilitation that may mitigate the conflict, except when federal or state regulations bar employment in specific circumstances. Having a conviction history does not automatically preclude you from a job with the City of Concord.

    • It is important to carefully read the complete job bulletin before submitting your application so you are aware of all requirements of both the position and the process.
    • When preparing your application, consider reviewing the job announcement and classification specification so that you may emphasize work experience relevant to the position for which you are applying.
