Background Check Requirement

A criminal conviction record check is required for all college staff positions as a condition of employment for selected candidates. Employment offers are contingent upon the successful completion of this background check. A conviction does not automatically disqualify a candidate; each case is reviewed based on the nature of the conviction and its relevance to the responsibilities of the position.

Visa Petition Information

Reed is committed to hiring faculty members who are excellent teachers-scholars. To the extent allowed or required by law, Reed has historically petitioned for faculty members’ employment-based visas, including H-1B visas. However, given the recently announced significant employer fee increase to $100,000 for certain H-1B visa applications, Reed is not currently able to petition for employees for those visa applications that are subject to that fee increase. Reed will evaluate other requests on a case-by-case basis and will reconsider the newly increased fees for H-1B filings, as well as future changes that may be announced, as new information becomes available. Prospective candidates should contact the dean of the faculty (koleson@reed.edu) to discuss status and fees.
