Recruitment advertising indicates that positions of trust require a criminal conviction check.
After the hiring supervisor has identified the best qualified candidate, the Employment Recruiter then initiates the criminal history check. This check is completed before an employment offer is made. An Officer in the University's Public Safety Department conducts the check via a statewide computer search of all 100 counties. The checks are conducted using the public records of the North Carolina Administrative Office of the Courts. To set up this arrangement, the Administrative Office of the Courts required close coordination and support of the Orange County Clerk of Court.
