You’re Hired?

Additional paperwork will be required at orientation IF you are hired. The forms below will need to be printed off and filled out.
Bring to orientation:
*a copy of your driver’s license or school ID or latest report card
AND
*a copy of your Social Security card or Birth Certificate

We will be using a program called HOMEBASE. Check your e-mail often to find your invitation.
HOMEBASE is a software program that we use to collect documents and forms required once you are hired. We will also use it to communicate with staff and schedule you, so please become familiar with it so that you can request off, find a sub, or request to be scheduled!
We will also use HOMEBASE to clock in and out in the staff break room.

Note: All paychecks will be issued via Direct Deposit to your bank account. We require a completed “Authorization for Direct Deposit” form with your bank account number and bank routing number.
