Please read the following carefully and sign below to acknowledge your awareness.
I affirm that my answers to all questions on this application are true and correct, and that I have not knowingly withheld any information.
I understand that Independence Blue Cross may verify all statements and related matters contained in this application, which may include credit history (if applicable to the position), criminal conviction record, academic credentials, employment history, licenses and government records. I agree not to bring a claim against Independence Blue Cross, LLC or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates (Independence Blue Cross) or any person, company or agency for providing or using that information requested. I agree that if the statements I have made are not true and correct, Independence Blue Cross may decide not to consider my application or may rescind any offer of employment. If I should become employed and any statement is found not true and correct, Independence Blue Cross may terminate my employment immediately. I authorize without reservation, any party or agency contacted by this employer to furnish the above-mentioned information.
I understand that Independence Blue Cross is committed to a drug free workplace. In keeping with this commitment, every candidate for full-, part-time regular and temporary employment is required to undergo pre-employment drug screening. Drug screening is conducted after an offer of employment has been extended. Each offer of employment is conditioned on passing the pre-employment drug screen; offers will be withdrawn if the test results are not negative.
Independence Blue Cross may contact me at the phone numbers I have provided to discuss my application by Short Message Service (“SMS”) and/or texting services (“Text(s)”). If the company chooses to communicate with me by SMS and/or Text, we will send you a message directly to your mobile phone and you can choose to respond to such communication via Text or you can opt-out from texting at any time by responding to the message with the word STOP. Each Text message that you send to us will be processed through a third-party service where the vendor has agreed to comply with all applicable privacy laws and regulations promulgated thereunder. We retain these text messages as part of our company communication records and the retention of such data will be subject to our company document retention policies. When you text with an Independence Blue Cross recruiter or employee related to your job application, your information will travel through third party infrastructures which are not under our control (such as our contracted third-party SMS/Text message delivery platform or your carrier network). Standard messaging and data rates related to text messages may apply from your mobile telephone service carrier. I understand that consent to receiving SMS and/or Text messages is not a condition of employment and that I may revoke this consent at any time in writing.
If I become employed, I understand that I must agree to comply with all the policies, procedures and practices governing Independence Blue Cross for its employees. If employed, I will be required to sign and comply with the Independence Blue Cross Corporate Code of Conduct. For certain positions, as a condition of employment, Independence Blue Cross requires the execution of a non-compete agreement in order to protect the company’s legitimate business needs.
In the event of my employment, I understand that my employment is at-will and there are no explicit guarantees of continued employment with Independence Blue Cross. Independence Blue Cross retains the right to terminate my employment at any time, for any reason, with or without cause or notice and I will likewise retain the right to resign.
I acknowledge that I read and understand the above Employment Application Acknowledgement.
