WORK EXPERIENCE VERIFICATION:

Meeting Minimum Requirements:  If the requirements for a position list work experience in a field or area the Applicant must provide written verification(s) of their applicable work experience in order to be hired for the position.  Such written verification(s) of work experience must demonstrate that the applicant meets the minimum work experience requirement.  Applicants who do not produce this information as indicated will be ineligible for hire and subject to having any offer of employment withdrawn.    

Salary Calculation: For all positions on all Salary Schedules, the salary amount for the selected applicant is determined by step placement on the applicable schedule.  Step placement is dependent upon the following: (a) all work experience in public education in Alabama and (b) all other work experience outside of public education in Alabama that, in the sole judgment of the College, directly relates to the requirements of the position.  The applicant selected for the position must provide written verification(s) of this work experience within the time provided herein if such experience is to be considered in determining their initial step place on the Salary Schedule.    

Format for Work Experience Verifications:  Work experience verifications should be in the form of verification letters from employers and must include complete employment dates, job title(s), job duties, and an indication whether such employment was full-time or part-time, and if part-time, the average number of hours worked each week.  The letters should be on official letterhead and contain an authorized personnel signature.  The College's official employment verification form is also acceptable and is available upon request.  If an employment verification cannot be obtained due to a legitimate reason, for purposes of meeting minimum requirements an applicant may submit copies of other trustworthy documentation such as appointment letters, contracts, pay stubs, or W-2 forms documenting the term of employment.  However, such documentation is generally insufficient for salary calculation purposes if job duties are not self-evident in the documentation.
