Process for recruiting and certifying technician candidates

摘要

On-line preliminary screening of technician candidates is carried out automatically at a central office and the names of certified technician candidates are provided to businesses, e.g., franchise operators, in the same or nearby geographic location as the candidate. Candidates are directed to an interactive survey of background information. Alternatively, candidates may contact the central office by email and complete an email survey. A candidate with satisfactory background data is provided with an on-line employment or consulting agreement which is to be reviewed and signed electronically. Some sub-parts must be agreed to specifically. Then the candidate downloads a job-related procedure manual, and after studying that, he or she takes an on-line timed examination. If the candidate achieves a satisfactory score, he or she is considered certified, and at that time the name is given to the franchise operator(s). One retake of the examination is permitted.
