I Ie I I I I I I I t' I I I I I I " I I City of Arden Hills save the travel expense of personal interviews for the semi-finalists. Other clients have found reviewing these videos to be very helpful when evaluating the final candidates. If requested by the City, background checks will be conducted and will include traffic, criminal, credit and credential verification. Personal and professional reference checks from professional associates and others, as appropriate, will confidentially be performed. Springsted's team will carefully check the background of each semi- finalist. To date, no candidate recommended by Springsted has been the subject of a criminal or ethics violation investigation. 4. Selection of Finalists/Candidate Presentation Based on our analysis and review of the semi-finalist candidates, Springsted will develop a list of finalist candidates. A personal interview will be conducted with each finalist and a detailed background and reference check will be conducted. Springsted will speak directly with individuals who are, or have been, in positions to evaluate the candidate's performance on the job. Finalist Reoort A report covering the finalist candidates will be prepared and Springsted will recommend, with written justification, the candidates most aligned with the City's specifications. The report submitted to the Mayor and City Council will include a professional profile of each candidate's qualifications, an assessment of his/her background, candidate biographies and references. Springsted will meet with the Mayor and City Council to present and discuss the recommendations, provide background information and assist in determining those candidates best qualified for consideration for appointment to the position of City Administrator. 5.
