I recently went for an interview with a very large corporation, I got the job and they handed the process over to HR.
HR, requires me to give up references (including my current employer details) as part of the process.
BUT this is part of their process that takes place BEFORE an offer is even made!
I know they are attempting to negate all possible risk, but in the process they are exposing me to significant risk, leaving me with no room to back away cleanly.
If I give them my references, they will be calling up my employer, basically letting the cat out of the bag that I'm going for interviews, and all of this even before tabling a formal offer.
So what happens if I decide to reject the offer? It will have completely soured the milk at my current job, especially given the facts that it's a small company and I've worked here for AGES.
I'm feeling like:
try
{
Career.ChangeCompany("NewCompany");
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
throw ex;
}
I've not been in the job market for many years, has this become standard HR practice?

Do they state anywhere that references will only be contacted if a job offer is made? I've seen that on applications before where they ask for references up front.
|
|
|
|
|
They basically told me that they have to follow up all my references before they can make me an offer.
|
|
|
|
|
But not necessarily before they interview you. Those are two separate considerations.
|
|
|
|
|
As it's post-interview I assume they plan on making you an offer.
And what makes you so sure your current workplace doesn't know you're looking elsewhere? Somehow these things always get out.
|

References are for trusted colleagues at your company. Do not include HR, Execs, or managers, in your reference list.
I would call them now, if you haven't already, and get clarification.
|
|
|
|
|
Its a difficult situation to be in, but how do you know nobody from your place visits the Lounge?
|
|
|
|
|
Quite simply put you can state that they are not to follow references until an offer is made.
If after an offer is made they decide that the references are of concern they can follow this up with you(if you lied then this would be an acceptable reason for withdrawing the offer) - any company that treats you in any other manner is not one worth working for in my opinion.
