Application for Employment

I hereby certify that I have not knowingly withheld any information that might adversely affect my chances for employment and that the answers given by me are true and correct to the best of my knowledge. I further certify that I, the undersigned applicant, have personally completed this application. I understand that any omission or misstatement of material facts on this application or on any documents used to secure employment shall be grounds for rejection of this application or for immediate discharge if I am employed, regardless of the time elapsed before discovery.

I hereby authorize The Gideons International to thoroughly investigate my references, work records, education, and other matters related to my suitability for employment and, further, authorize my current and former employers to disclose to the company any and all letters, reports, and other information pertaining to my employment with them, without giving me prior notice of such disclosure. In addition, I hereby release The Gideons International, my current and former employers, and all other persons, corporations, partnerships, and associations from any and all claims, demands or liabilities arising out of or in any way related to such investigation or disclosure.

I understand that nothing contained in the application or conveyed to me during my interview, which may be granted, is intended to create an employment contract, implied or explicit, between me and The Gideons International. In addition, I understand and agree that if I am employed, my employment relationship with The Gideons International is strictly voluntary and at our mutual will. I understand that if employed, my employment is for no definite or determinable period and may be terminated at any time, with or without prior notice, with or without cause or reason, at the option of either myself or The Gideons International, and that no promises or representations contrary to the foregoing are binding on The Gideons International unless made in writing and signed jointly by the Executive Director and myself.

I understand that if offered employment, I will, as a condition of employment, be required to submit proof on my first day of employment of my identity and legal right to work in the United States.

If the position applied for requires driving in the course of work, I understand that I will be required to possess a current and valid Tennessee driver’s license and understand that I will be required to provide a copy of my official driving record and proof of insurance. I also understand that any offer of employment is contingent on my ability to be covered by The Gideons International’s auto insurance, if required for my position.
