Hiring Process

Steps for Hiring a New Employee

Before hiring, contact HR to ensure that your job is correctly posted to the DBC jobs page.

Initial application process…

1. Have the prospective employee go to dentonbible.org/jobs, select the job they are applying for, and fill out the application.
2. When Human Resources receives an employment application, the hiring manager will be sent an email with the applicant’s application and resume if one is submitted.
3. Once the hiring manager confirms with Human Resources which applicant they would like to move forward with, the applicant will need to fill out the Background Screening Consent Form.
4. The Hiring manager must then obtain permission to hire the prospective employee from the Senior Pastor, and then e-mail Tom’s confirmation and approval to Human Resources.
5. The Hiring manager must also complete the Employee Information Form.
6. Once these two forms are turned in to Human Resources and the background check, reference check, and MinistrySafe are completed, the employee can be officially offered the position.

If approved and the applicant accepts the position…

Human Resources will send a link to the new employee to complete online onboarding. The new employee will be asked to complete the following:

• Federal I-9 form along with supporting documentation
• W-4
• Read and sign the Employee Handbook
• Read and sign the Use of Technology Policy
• Read and sign the Children and Youth Safety Policy
• Read and sign the Conflict of Interest Policy
• Complete the Reporting of Abuse or Neglect acknowledgement
• Direct Deposit and Reimbursement Forms

The employee should also familiarize themselves with the following…

1. Pay periods, time sheet due dates and pay day dates are located on the Payroll Calendar.
2. Part-time and hourly employees will need to turn time sheets in to their ministry director or supervisor on the second Wednesday of the pay period. (see Payroll Calendar for dates)

3. All new employees who will be using a Denton Bible Church computer will need a Covenant Eyes or Accountable2 You account. Ministry Directors may request a new Covenant Eyes or Accountable2 You account by submitting a Support Ticket.
4. Some new employees will need access to the Denton Bible Church database (MinistryPlatform). To request access, the Ministry Director should visit the MP Access & Training page.
5. Some new employees will need access to the Denton Bible Church financial software (ACS).The Ministry Director should contact the ACS Administrator with the employee’s name and anticipated ACS usage to set up the new employee account. If the employee will need access to ministry financial information, the Ministry Director should contact the Senior Executive Pastor with the expected ACS Financial Suite usage.
