Typically, potential employers will want to check the truthfulness and validity of the assertions made by a candidate on a resume or job application. For example, a potential employer may want to be assured that the candidate had not been fired from a previous position or that his educational credentials were in fact earned by him. However, past and present employers and schools may be hesitant to release this information for fear of violating the candidate’s privacy. To combat this, a potential employer can use an Authorization to Release Information. This release is signed by the candidate when he applies for a position and expressly allows past and present employers and schools to release information to the employer regarding such things as performance evaluations, work-related characteristics and termination records.

This form can be used in Wyoming.

This package contains: (1) Instructions and Checklist for the Authorization to Release Information (the “Authorization”); (2) Information regarding the Authorization; (3) the Authorization.

Is This Form Right For You?

Use This Form If:

  • Individuals seeking employment may need to provide this authorization to allow potential employers to verify their past work experience and educational background. This ensures that the information presented in their resumes or applications is accurate and trustworthy.
  • Situations requiring a thorough background check often involve candidates applying for sensitive positions where trustworthiness is paramount. Employers in such cases will request this authorization to confirm the candidate's previous employment and any relevant performance evaluations.
  • To comply with company policies, organizations may require all job applicants to sign an Authorization to Release Information. This helps maintain a standard procedure for verifying candidate qualifications and ensuring that all hires meet the company's criteria.
  • For those transitioning between jobs, this form can facilitate the verification process by allowing former employers to disclose necessary information about the candidate's work history. It streamlines the hiring process by reducing delays related to information gathering.
  • Recruiters may utilize this authorization to expedite the hiring process for their clients. By obtaining consent from candidates, they can quickly gather necessary information from previous employers and educational institutions.

Do Not Use If:

  • This form is not appropriate for individuals who are not actively seeking employment. If a candidate is not applying for a job, there is no need for an authorization to release information.
  • Situations where the candidate has not provided accurate information on their resume may require a different approach. In such cases, employers should address discrepancies directly rather than relying solely on this authorization.
  • If the candidate is applying for a position that does not require background checks or verification of past employment, this form may be unnecessary. Employers should assess the relevance of the authorization based on the job requirements.
  • This authorization should not be used in cases where the candidate is applying for a position that does not involve sensitive information or trust-based roles. For low-risk positions, the need for such a release may be minimal.
  • In instances where the candidate has previously revoked consent for information release, this form should not be utilized. Employers must respect the candidate's wishes regarding their privacy and information disclosure.
