If you need assistance in completing this application, please contact the Human Resources Department of the Diocese of Owensboro. Applicants should be extremely careful as they complete this application.

This application form is to be filled out completely, in order to be considered for possible employment. If an item does not apply, respond by using “NA.”

All applicants will be required to furnish proof of identity and legal work authorization to be considered for employment.

List all jobs, beginning with the most recent position.

Give at least three current professional references, including your present employers, who have first-hand knowledge of your character, personality and work ability. Please do not include family members or friends as references.

I understand that the employer follows an “employment at will” policy, in that I or the employer may terminate my employment at any time, without prior notice for any reason. This “employment at will” policy cannot be changed unless the change is specifically authorized in writing. I understand that this application is not a contract of employment. I understand that federal law prohibits the employment of unauthorized aliens; all persons hired must submit satisfactory proof of employment authorization and identity; failure to submit such proof will result in denial of employment. I understand that certain positions may require the knowledge of or the practice of the Catholic Faith. If this is a requirement, I will be told prior to employment. I understand that misrepresentation or omission of facts may result in rejection of this application, or if hired, discipline up to and including termination. I understand (and authorize) that the employer may thoroughly investigate my work and personal history and verify all data given on this application, on related papers, and in interview. I authorize all individuals, schools, licensure boards, agencies, and companies named therein, except my current employer if so noted, to provide any information requested about me, and I release them from all liability for damage in providing this information. I understand that any employment or offer of employment is dependent on the results of a background check. I understand that filling out this form does not indicate there is a position open and does not obligate the Diocese of Owensboro to hire me. I certify that all statements herein are true and understand that any falsification or willful omission shall be sufficient cause for dismissal or refusal of employment.
