If you submit an employment or internship application through our website, Cardinal Construction may collect the information necessary to evaluate your qualifications and candidacy.

This information may include contact information, employment history, education, professional qualifications, certifications, references, resume information, and other information you choose to provide.

Application information may be shared internally with employees involved in recruiting, hiring, human resources, or management decisions and with service providers that assist us with recruiting or application processing.
