General Mills Applicant Privacy Policy

If you apply for a job or otherwise participate in recruitment events, we may collect additional personal information about you. For example, we may collect professional and employment-related information, such as your education and employment history, relevant professional qualifications, information about your performance and conduct, and other information you share during the job application and recruitment processes. Some of this information is collected directly from you, and some may be collected from other sources including potential references, your former employers, recruiting agencies, General Mills employees, and, where permissible, companies that perform background checks.

We may ask you to provide your mobile number. With your consent (opt-in), we may use your mobile number to communicate with you, including by text about job opportunities and/or your application. We may share mobile information with service providers and subcontractors in support services, for use cases such as customer service. Mobile information and opt-in data/consents of applicants will not be shared for or with any other purposes or third parties, including for marketing or promotional purposes.

We (or third-party vendors we use) may collect publicly available information about you from websites or social media, including information that you choose to voluntarily submit to us in connection with your application (e.g. when applying through LinkedIn).

We use this information in connection with our recruiting and hiring efforts, including to evaluate your application, consider you for roles within the organization, and to monitor and improve our recruiting activities, as well as for other legal, compliance, and human resources purposes.
