Faculty FAQs
The first thing you need to do before working is come to the Human Resources Department at 801 W. Fort Street (corner of Fort & Third), Detroit, MI 48226 and complete the necessary new hire paperwork. The Human Resources Department is open every business day from 8:30 am to 5:00 pm. You should allow yourself approximately one hour to complete the forms. One of the forms you will need to complete is called the Employment Eligibility Verification Form (I-9). It is very important that you bring the appropriate original supporting documentation to prove that you have the legal right to work in the United States. Below is a list of approved documents that are required for you to provide to the Human Resources Department.
- Completed and Signed Employment Application

The acknowledgment letter outlines the process. Only those applicants who apply and best meet the requirements will receive further consideration.
