Do places ever actually call for references to an old company? I feel like that's the biggest bullshit everyone believes in. I've had several people ask to use me as reference and I never got a call..
I get reference checking calls all the time for my guys.
It's a HR checklist thing, part of their due diligence process.
You don't want to be that HR chick that "didn't even reference check him!!!"
I never call for an employee reference check however, because I only hire guys I already know, and trust, and have seen in action.
