It is our experience in reference checking, that a reference does not need to be illegal in order to sabotage a job search. Reference checking services are important because a mediocre job reference can be enough for the job offer to go to another candidate.
If you are concerned about what your former employer is saying about you consider this statement from an Allison and Taylor, Inc. client:
“I am glad that the consultant was able to contact my reference. My mind is much more at ease concerning what he will say. This is all very good.”
