I understand that the Met requires certain information about me to evaluate my qualifications for employment and to conduct its business if I become employed. Therefore, I authorize the Met to investigate my past employment, educational credentials, other employment-related activities and any additional information provided in the applications, and I agree to cooperate in such investigations. I hereby release the Met and all persons supplying such information to the Met from all liability, claims for damages, or responsibility whatsoever with respect to information supplied. I recognize and agree as a condition of my employment that I may be required to consent to a criminal records check and appropriate federal and/or state law enforcement agencies. The Immigration Reform and Control Act (IRCA) of 1986 prohibits employment of unauthorized aliens and requires employers to verify the employment eligibility of all new employees. I understand that any offer of employment with the Met is contingent upon my providing the documentation required by the IRCA as evidence of my personal identity and authorization to work in the United States. If verification becomes necessary, I will be notified of the appropriate requirements. I certify that the information provided on this application is true and complete to the best of my knowledge. I understand that any false answers or statements made by me on this application or any supplement thereto may be grounds for refusal of employment or, if employed, may be ground for immediate discharge. I understand that this is an application for employment and that no offer of employment is being hereby extended. I understand that except as otherwise provided in a collective bargaining agreement or a written employment agreement signed by an authorized representative of the Met, any employment with the Met is “at will” and will not be for any fixed period of time, and that, if employed, I may resign at any time for any reason, or the Met may terminate my employment at any time for any reason.✱
