Questions
No. Question
Question1 Do you understand, and will abide by, the provision in your subcontract with OST that it is PROHIBITED for government equipment to be taken or used outside of the United States by your contractors? The consequences of this occurring can and will result in repercussions to you, the prime vendor, regardless if the candidate works for a sub-vendor of yours. It will also result in immediate termination of the contractor and make them ineligible for rehire in the program.
Question2 Please note: The selected candidate(s) must accept the offered position within 48 hours of vendor notification. Failure to do so will result in DRC moving to their next candidate choice. Do you accept?
Question3 Once a candidate accepts an offered position, ALL DRC compliance items listed under the "Compliance" tab on the candidate record must be completed within 5 business days and uploaded into Vector. Failure to do so will result in DRC moving to their next candidate choice. Do you accept?
Question4 Selected candidate will be required to have a Fingerprint check performed. Does your candidate agree?
