PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE SIGNING

I certify that all information I have provided is true, complete and correct. I authorize Challenge (or its agents) to investigate and verify all statements contained on my employment application and/or resume and any other material or information that I have provided. I authorize any employer, school, and other individual or entity that has knowledge of me, or my records to release information to and communicate freely with Challenge. In consideration for Challenge’s review of my application for employment, I hereby release my individual, entity and Challenge from all claims of liabilities that might arise from the inquiry into or disclosure of such information, including claims under any federal, state, or local civil rights law and any claims for defamation or invasion of privacy. I suggest you contact the individuals listed for references. I understand Challenge representatives may secure references from individuals other than those listed. I understand that submission of an application does not guarantee employment. If I am hired, I understand that I am free to resign at any time, with or without cause and without prior notice, and Challenge reserves the same right to terminate my employment at any time, with or without cause and without prior notice, except as required by law. This application does not constitute an agreement or contract for employment for a specified period or definite duration. I understand that the existence of a criminal background may affect my ability to perform certain jobs, and if offered a position, Challenge has the right to review my background and perform a criminal background check. The presence of a criminal conviction in my background will not necessarily disqualify me from employment. Challenge complies with New York State Correction Law Article 23-A which provides certain rights to people previously convicted of a criminal offense, and will make an employment decision based on the bona fide relationship between the requirements of the job to be performed and the nature of the criminal offense, and based on our need to protect the safety and welfare of the public and the people we serve. Challenge will provide me with a summary of my rights under this article if I so desire. If I am arrested for a criminal offense after I am employed by Challenge, I understand that Challenge may use that information, in accordance with Article 23-A, in deciding whether to continue my employment. In consideration for employment with Challenge, if employed, I agree to conform to the rules, regulations, policies and procedures of Challenge at all times and understand that such obedience is a condition of employment. I understand that due to the nature of Challenge business, confidentiality, attendance and punctuality are considered essential requirements of every job at Challenge and that poor attendance or tardiness will result in disciplinary action. I understand that if I enter information in my employment application that is false, incomplete, or misrepresents the truth in any respect, Challenge may deny my application or terminate my employment, whenever it is discovered.
