Targeted Reference Checks. The University of California is committed to creating and
maintaining a community dedicated to the advancement, application, and transmission of
knowledge and creative endeavors through academic excellence, where all individuals who
participate in University programs and activities can work and learn together in a safe and secure environment, free of violence, harassment, bullying and other demeaning behavior,
discrimination, exploitation, or intimidation. With this commitment as well as a commitment to
addressing all forms of academic misconduct, UCLA conducts targeted employment reference
checks for finalists to whom departments or other hiring units would like to extend formal offers
of appointment into Academic Senate faculty positions. The targeted employment reference
checks involve contacting the finalists’ current and prior places of employment to ask whether
there have been substantiated findings of misconduct that would violate the University’s Faculty
Code of Conduct. To implement this process, UCLA requires all applicants for Academic Senate
faculty positions to complete, sign, and upload the form entitled “Authorization to Release
Information” into RECRUIT as part of their application. If the applicant does not include the
signed authorization to release information with the application materials, the application will be
considered incomplete. As with any incomplete application, the application will not receive
further consideration. Although all applicants for faculty recruitments must complete the entire
application, only finalists (i.e., those to whom the department or other hiring unit would like to
extend a formal offer) considered for Academic Senate faculty positions will be subject to
targeted employment reference checks.
