Application for Employment

The following supporting documents are optional. If uploading a resume, cover letter or transcript, PDF format is preferred.

The following points are very important. Please read carefully before signing this application.

I understand that information I provide in my application/resume and interview(s) may be checked for accuracy by the Greenville County Library System.

I authorize the Greenville County Library System to make investigations and inquiries of my personal, employment, education and related matters as may be necessary in arriving at its employment decision. I release employers, schools, governmental agencies and persons contacted from all liability in responding to inquiries in connection with my application for employment.

I understand that, depending upon the position for which I am applying, a background investigation of my criminal, credit and/or driving history may be made. I understand that I have the right to make a written request within a reasonable period of time to receive detailed information about the nature and scope of this background investigation.

Criminal record checks require date of birth, which I will be asked for upon offer of employment. Such an offer will be conditional based on results of the check. I understand all such reports will be held in strictest confidence.

I understand that, if hired, this document shall serve as authorization for the Greenville County Library System to conduct background investigations at any time during my employment period.

I hereby acknowledge that I understand, unless otherwise defined by applicable law, any employment relationship with the Greenville County Library System is of an "at will" nature, which means that either the employer or employee can terminate the employment relationship at any time with or without cause and with or without notice. The employment-at-will status of each employee cannot be altered by any oral statement or representation, but can only be changed by a written contract, which must be signed by the Executive Director of the Greenville County Library System.

In the event of my employment, I understand that false or misleading information given in my application, accompanying documents or interview(s) may result in discharge, regardless of the time elapsed after discovery. I also understand that I am required to abide by all rules and regulations of the Greenville County Library System.
