Legal Question in Employment Law in California

You have to list your previous jobs for the number of years the application calls for. If you do not or you chose to leave a job off, you run the risk of not getting hired, or being fired at any time, if the employer learns you falsified the application.

Your prospective employer can ask anything they want about your past employment. If you don't want to tell them, don't apply for the job.

If you want the job, you have to accurately answer the employer's questions and satisfy them you are someone worth hiring. If you lie on that application, you'll be immediately fired when they discover the lie in a background check.
