What does the fourth step determine?

• A. The final position designation
• B. The program designation
• C. The final position designation, which in turn determines the investigative requirements
• D. The level of supervision

Answer: (C)

The fourth step sets the final position designation. That designation then drives exactly which investigative requirements must be completed. In other words, once you settle the job’s final designation, you know the appropriate depth and scope of the background checks and other investigations that apply. Other elements like the level of supervision or a separate program designation aren’t determined at this step; they flow from the final designation and the resulting adjudication requirements.
