So I'm applying for a job and I get to the section where they ask for employment history:
Can we contact previous employer: Y or N?
Name of employment
Address
Phone: (by phone I think they mean the phone number of the business and not my supervisor)
I get to the section where they ask for reference:
So I put down the references of my supervisors and their phone numbers
my questions is when HR calls will they call the actual business phone number I gave above or will they call my references. I'm worried because the reference I gave no longer works at said company but he's willing to pretend like he still does. So if they call the business phone number and ask for said person he obviously won't be there. I would prefer that they call my supervisor directly. So will HR call the business or will they call the reference?
