This information MUST be included on the typing certificate. Applications received without a valid typing certificate attached, or not meeting the minimum words per minute (35 net WPM) WILL NOT be considered and WILL NOT be contacted to correct the deficiency.

IMPORTANT : Contact with candidates will primarily be via email. Make sure you list a current email that you check regularly on your application.

Background Investigation:
All appointments to this position are subject to a fingerprint check, polygraph and background investigation coordinated by the Concord Police Department. The following list describes some areas that are covered in the investigation.

The information supplied regarding your educational history is examined and verified.
You must list a history of your residences.
Your work history and experience are examined with regard to your dependability, relationships with fellow workers, trustworthiness, and general job performance.

Your criminal, driving, and insurance records are evaluated. Felony convictions will be grounds for disqualification from the selection process.
If you have a history of recent or prolonged use of illegal controlled substances you may be dismissed from the process.

Deliberate misstatements or omissions can and often will result in your application being rejected, regardless of the nature or reason for the misstatements/omissions. In fact, the number one reason individuals fail and/or are disqualified during the background investigation is because they deliberately withhold or misrepresent job-relevant information. Applicants must be truthful in all phases of the process and promptly submit documentation when requested.

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.
