Last time I discussed a Cease and Desist letter and how letters can put a stop to career damaging feedback.
Few references will relish the prospect of their own boss, or their corporate management, receiving such a letter which will invariably reflect poorly on them, the reference. Rather than risk this alternative, the reference may well decide that it is in their own best interest to “cease and desist” offering any continued negative references about the former employee.
Come back next time and find out how to go about getting a cease and desist.
