For certain positions within the County, a criminal background check or clearances will be required during the evaluation process as a condition of
employment. It is the goal of Montgomery County to hire from a broadly diverse pool of qualified applicants, including where appropriate and permitted by
law, individuals with a history of criminal convictions. As such, applicants with a criminal background will not be automatically excluded from consideration
for hire with the County.
RELEASE OF CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

employment records including performance evaluations, time and attendance records and any other personnel records and written or verbal references for
the County's review and evaluation with regard to my application for employment with the said County of Montgomery.

I certify that I have read and understand these prohibitions regarding political activity and promise to obey said restrictions if employed in an applicable department. I further
understand that failure to comply will result in my dismissal from County employment and/or forms of disciplinary action.
