Allie asked:


My boss is very pushy and would not allow any of her THREE employers to quit without a fight.

Basically, I’m thinking of just quitting. However, I don’t think she’d have great things to say about me if a potential employer called her.

I thought of getting around that situation by not listing that job as previous employment.

What are the downfalls of doing so?

Please and thank you for answers!

Sam Peters asked:


I noticed some sites ( for a small fee) offer anyone’s employment history for anyone to see. I always thought employment history was somewhat confidential. How can these sites legally provide employment history for people to view?

Can Title VII override the employment environment and conditions detailed in a written contract between an employer and an employee?
Why or Why not?
So if you can include a web site for me to go to can you please include what I should put in the search field of that site. Thank you SO much!

What site or service provider (if any) do most employers use to run pre-employment criminal background checks? Also, if a conviction is had in 1 state, will the record of it show up on a background check performed in a different state?

M. Anthony asked:


This question applies to the state of California.

I have been told that employers are only allowed to confirm dates of employment, nothing more, such as the nature of your departure from the company. I want to know if this is true, and to what extent.

The reason for asking this question is, I want to know whether or not the fact I was fired from a company will hinder my future employment.
