Identify employment requirements and job-orientation expectations.

Identification should include

  • specific job hiring procedures
  • tax forms (e.g., I-9, W-4)
  • company policy documents
  • company benefit forms
  • required training, certifications, and credentials.

Additional employment requirements might include tests and assessments (e.g., mathematical or problem-solving tests, computer-proficiency tests, drug tests, tests of clerical skills).

Process/Skill Questions:

  • Why do employers increasingly require applicants to pass employment tests?
  • What does an employee orientation typically entail?
  • Why is it important for an employer to train new hires?
  • What is a background check? In what occupations would it be especially important to conduct background checks?
