Application and Interview Process

Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis until positions are filled. Stanford Pre-Collegiate Studies staff reviews applications and invites qualified candidates to engage in the interview process. All interviews will take place on Zoom. If selected for employment, the following steps are required to be successfully hired:

1. Sign the offer letter sent by Human Resources in a timely manner.
2. Complete all requested Background Check information, including a driving check (if applicable).
3. Set up a LiveScan digital fingerprinting appointment (California candidates) or a hard card fingerprinting appointment (out of state candidates). Successfully completing this step is required to work with minors.
4. Complete the I-9 paperwork followed by an in-person I-9 appointment at Stanford’s campus or an I-9 Anywhere appointment (if outside of the San Francisco Bay Area). Successfully completing this step is required before candidates can begin any compensable work. Failure to complete this step in a timely manner may result in a delayed start date. Note: International students should check with their on-campus international students office for information about required visas and documents.
