In consideration of the acceptance and processing of my application for employment, and of my employment with the Village of Carpentersville (if I am employed), I warrant and represent as follows:

1. Certification. I certify that I have not knowingly withheld any information that might adversely affect my chances for employment with the Village of Carpentersville and that the information given by me is true and correct without any mental reservation whatsoever. I understand that any omission or misstatement of material fact on my application for employment, resume, or any other document used to secure employment with the Village of Carpentersville, or during any pre-employment interview, shall be grounds for immediate discharge if I am hired, regardless of the time elapsed before discovery.


2. At-Will Employment. I understand and agree that, except as may be provided in an applicable collective bargaining agreement, if I am hired, my employment and compensation are for no definite or determinable period and may be terminated at any time, with or without cause, warning or notice, at the option of either myself or the Village of Carpentersville. I further understand and agree that no representative of the Village of Carpentersville, now or in the future, is authorized to make any binding representations or agreements, whether oral or written, contrary to the foregoing or purporting to guarantee any particular benefits, terms, or conditions of employment.


3. Re-Application Policy. I understand that under the Village of Carpentersville’s policy, this application will remain active for only ninety (90) days. Therefore, if I have not been hired within ninety (90) days of the date of this application and I still wish to be considered for employment with the Village of Carpentersville, I understand that I will need to complete and submit a new employment application.

I understand that the Village requires a substance screening and post-offer pre-employment physical. I agree to submit to testing for the detection of drugs and alcohol and give permission for test results to be released to the Village. I further understand that positive test results, refusal to be tested, or any attempt to affect the test results or sample will result in my withdrawal from consideration for employment or termination of employment.
