NEW
HIRING PROCESS - effective January 1,
2010
• Why was the process
changed?
HFM BOCES has revised the hiring process for substitutes to
clarify for every applicant the duties they may be
expected to perform and to help them fully understand
the responsibilities of the position(s).
The objective of HFM BOCES Substitute Services is to carry
forward our component school districts educational
process and maintain a safe environment for all students
and staff. Our hiring process was revised to help insure
a good fit that better responds to the needs of our
component districts.
The ultimate goal is to provide a successful experience for
both the school district and the substitute.
• What is the new
hiring process?
To be considered for employment as a substitute, an
applicant must:
submit all required
paperwork and
complete a formal
interview process.
If you are recommended for employment, you will be
required to complete the following steps:
Fingerprinting and
clearance
Photo ID
Hazard
Communications/Right To Know Training

Workshop
All applicants for a substitute position will be
required to complete an I-9 Employment Verification
form. Federal regulations require employers to ask
applicants to complete the form and provide proof of
identity, so bring your driver's license and social
security card to your interview.
