You also must also pass a physical examination and drug test before the interview process. We recommend that you consult with your business advisors for further information about applicable laws and also check your state's official web site (typically the secretary of state) for information about applicable laws and regulations that may affect your Business.
In addition to other due diligence (e.g., financial condition and credit worthiness) we will conduct a detailed criminal background check of all prospective Bumper Man franchisees. Each prospective Bumper Man franchisee must consent to the background check, or we will not proceed with the evaluation of the prospective franchisee's application.
