Completing a Job Application

What is a Job Application? A job application is an employment form that requests personal information about an individual. Purpose: Shows applicant is legally eligible for work Minor test of the applicant’s literacy, penmanship, and communication skills May require information for use in a background check Learn applicant’s availability Usually will require a resume and cover letter in addition to the job application

Application Sections Personal Information Name Address Social Security Number Type of employment desired Educational Background Employment History Relevant Skills School and community activities References

Points to Consider Criminal Record: If you have one, ask to discuss it, not just write about it Work History Laid off: Take credit for the job you had Fired: Ask to discuss it with the employer “Job Hunting” is a legitimate reason for an employment gap Job Hopping: If you’ve had more than 3 jobs in the past 5 years, have good reasons for leaving No work history? List community involvement! Bring your list of references with you to put on the application.

Don’t Forget to… Use a pen, and print information neatly Read directions carefully Answer every question, even if you have to use N/A Write “open” if the application asks you for an expected salary Be honest and accurate Sign and date the application
