Employment Application
(CA)

Summary

This template is an Employment Application that gathers information from a job applicant so that an employer can determine the applicant's suitability for a position. It is intended for private employers. This Employment Application's language has been customized to comply with California and federal law. As a result, the text of this template differs from the non-jurisdictional Employment Application. This template does not cover all local law requirements; thus, you should review relevant local laws. The drafting notes and optional clauses address issues under both California and federal law. For a full listing of key content covering recruiting, screening, testing, hiring, and onboarding, see Screening and Hiring Resource Kit. For information on job applications under federal law, see Job Applications: Key Drafting Tips. For information on job applications in California, see Screening and Hiring (CA), Screening and Hiring (Los Angeles), and Screening and Hiring (San Francisco).
