New Hires
Learn about the hiring process for applicants recommended for hire.
We're excited to welcome you to the GISD family! As part of our hiring process, there are a few steps that will need to be completed before you can start your first day at work.
What to expect
An applicant may be recommended for hire by the hiring team after the interview process is finished. Once initially cleared, applicants recommended for hire can begin the hiring process. Please note that the initial clearing period by the Staffing Specialist may take some time.
There are four steps to the hiring process:
- Fingerprinting/Background checks
- Credential Verification
- Final Approval by Human Resources
- Onboarding Appointment
After these steps are completed, you will receive official clearance from our Human Resources (HR) department. Please do not report to work unless you have been cleared by your HR Staffing Specialist.
Hiring process details
Fingerprinting/Background Check

Once hiring paperwork has been submitted to Human Resources, you will receive an email to your personal email address with information to begin the fingerprinting process (Fastpass). This step can take up to five business days to complete once the fingerprinting process is finished.
Credential verification

Our certification team will review your credentials to determine your eligibility for hire. If additional information is needed, you will be contacted to continue the process.
HR Final approval

After your information has been processed through fingerprinting and credentialing, the approval process will begin. Once approved and finalized by an HR Director, you will be contacted by an HR Staffing Specialist.
