Lots of employers don't verify at all, especially for low level stuff.
Companies are also unlikely to provide much more than the start and end date of employment. No point taking any risks, no benefit from warning another company.
I haven’t the slightest clue why people are mass downvoting your real experience here.
Because although the obsequious attitude he’s advocating for might be individually advantageous, it’s damaging to society and sure as fuck shouldn’t be encouraged!
No, that’s ridiculous. It’s not damaging to anyone. It’s the reality of the serious career world, and if you want a good career in reality (vs a worker’s revolution or whatever in your fantasy) it would be wise to listen.
References are a real thing. Employment history is a real thing. These are checked by HR and hiring managers for serious career jobs, when an applicant is being considered. I have received direct confirmation of this from 2 jobs where I was hired, from my references and former employers who told me that the new employer called them to ask about me.
