Employment Application

Accept applications:

only when actually hiring post how long application will be considered (i.e., 30

days or until job is filled)

Reject applications:

that are incomplete or contain extraneous information: "Provide only the information requested. Failure to do so will result in disqualification of your application."

Don't substitute resume for application

Employment Application

Beware of inquiries that deal with protected classes:

For example, do not ask someone's age, ask "are you over 18? If not, provide your date of birth"

Do not ask an applicant for his/her gender, race, national origin, etc.
