This is a legal requirement since you will be joining a new company. To complete the application process, simply go to Starvedrockapply.com. Instructions for submitting the application are found at this site. You may visit the SRL Human Resources office for assistance with the application process where you will also have access to computers. Your department managers will be in touch with scheduled times pre-or-post-shift to complete the application process. 

After you submit the application, you will be sent, via email, an Offer Letter with a Background Check form which can be completed on line via Adobe Sign. The Offer Letters have an expiration date and you will have 72 hours to electronically sign the Offer and complete the Background Check form. 

Once your Background Check clears, you will be asked to take a pre-employment drug test which Human Resources will administer. 

Upon successfully passing the drug test, you will receive an electronic invitation to create a user name and password in the new payroll system, Paycor. Once registered in Paycor, you will be able to complete all other required documentation such as your W-4, Direct Deposit, etc.
