Sec. 5. Every applicant for a license shall file with the department of state revenue a written application, stating the name and address of the applicant, the name of the street and the number of the building in which the employment agency is to be maintained, the name of the person who is to have the general management of the office, the name under which the business of the office is to be carried on, and the business or occupation engaged in by the applicant for at least five (5) years immediately preceding the date of the application. Such applicant shall give as reference the names and addresses of at least three (3) persons of reputed business or professional integrity, located in the city or town where such applicant intends to conduct his business. The applicant shall be rejected if the department of state revenue finds that the applicant is not of good moral or business integrity, or when the premises for conducting the business of an employment agent are found upon investigation to be unfit for such use, or if there is any good and sufficient reason within the meaning and purpose of this chapter for rejecting such application. No license will be granted to any person whose license has been revoked within a period of three (3) years next preceding the date of such application. Each application shall be granted or refused within thirty (30) days from date of filing.
