You'll likely find that the wording is almost identical. I think they have gnomes that right these and sombody copies it. Case law is pretty standard in what you can and can't do. Most applications include the following -
1. That the term of employment is not guaranteed, and either party can terminate employment at any time .
2. That no notice from either party is required.
3. That all information provided is true, accurate and correct. Falsification of any information is subject to discipline up to and including termination.
4. That you give permission to contact any listed employer, reference, or others
5. The application is not a contract of employment.
6. (Defense Contractors) That employment may be subject to obtaining and maintaining ANY required security clearance. (Aside - and when it was taking 2 years to get even basic clearances and investigations completed that was a real pain, you can only have so much busy work for new grad engineers to do waiting)
7. That you will provide acceptable evidence of legal right to work in the United States.
8. Possibly a statement on physical ability or accomodations needed.
Pretty damn straightforward. The application is a legal document and while it isn't a contract for services it can be a contract.
I'll give you another interesting view. With very few exceptions these days an efficient HR group doesn't check personal references, outside the hiring company. I might call references if I'm trying to get an interview set up and I can't get in touch with you. The Hiring Managers may check professional references to see if you can do the job, but in the almost 20 years I worked in HR, Admin and Program Management, I only ran across one candidate who listed a reference who gave him a negative report. Personal references ain't worth poop, who lists somebody that isn't going to give them an up-check? With few exceptions I was too busy to check. The hiring manager needs to determine if you can do the job, unless it is a warm body type job. Then HR picks and if you can't handle it , management and HR dumps you.
Notice I said EFFICIENT HR, if you get the standard cover their butt bureaucrats, they worry more about dotting i's crossing t's. Add piles of bureaucracy to ensure nobody ever gets found fault. If the law doesn't require it and the company doesn't require it for a damn good reason, I don't do it. It costs money and time.
You get into any kind of technical or professional company , 90% of the applicants aren't going to meet the requirements. You get to a meat market like a Lowes 90% meet the requirements.
