Many potential employers will want to talk with your last supervisor, so if that person is not on your job reference, they'll want to know why. They might indeed call your last employer without your permission, and they are also free to gather information about you in any way they can. Job reference sometimes include looking up your credit rating and debt history, on the assumption that if you can't handle your personal finances well, then you might make a mess of your work with them.

What is a Job reference good for? What are these people asked? Are they really contacted by employers? What if the employer can't reach them for job reference? What past employers is a good or bad job reference? Are the past employers worth contacting? What are they asked? Can an employer find out about a person through a totally different source? How does a company check out a new employee? What does the company do when it receives a good or bad job reference? Do they bother if they see that the person was in a foreign country for a few years?

To maximize the value of the service performed, we ask to be directed to specific individual references. Primarily these individuals would include anyone familiar with your background, especially to any party to whom you reported. These individuals do not necessarily have to be named on your list of references, but be assured, if you reported to them, they are likely to be contacted by a prospective employer.


. This level of report includes additional questions such as the employee's ability to attract and mentor talent as well as salary history. It is recommended that salary and/or income information be provided by the candidate, as it is customary for a firm to confirm this type of information - not supply it.
