In addition, Heartland for Children reserves the right to deny employment if an applicant has a criminal conviction related to the job responsibilities of the position applied for.

I understand and agree that Heartland for Children reserves the right to require me to demonstrate that I can perform the essential functions of the job with or without reasonable accommodation.

    HFC uses E-Verify to verify the employment eligibility of all newly hired employees. Through E-Verify, employers send information from the I-9 Form to the Social Security Administration (SSA) and the Department of Homeland Security to verify that newly hired employees are authorized to work in the United States. HFC will inform the newly hired employee if E-Verify issues a mismatch and provide written instruction for contesting a mismatch. HFC will keep all personal information confidential."
