Employment

momteamlv asked:


I live in Nevada and was wondering if anyone knew the general laws regarding what an employer can and cannot say about you when someone calls to verify employment. I know a reference can say whatever they want but what about a previous employer? Thanks.

I’m very interested in pursuing federal employment, but I’ve read in a guidebook that some of these positions require security clearance. How can I get one?

A True Blue Fan from Philly asked:


I have lots of years of employment history, lots of different places as I’m the mother of 4.

How far back, in years, will a potential employer check employment records? 7 years? I didn’t indicate employment going way back as I started working full time in 1978.

Thanks.
I checked my credit report and all 3 reports only show the past 7 years. Is that what they use to check?

The majority of people in the United States are employed in a work relationship that is described as Employment at Will. Consider legal, business, technology and other relevant trends, and how may work relationships and Employment at Will likely change in the next 10-20 years? Could you also tell me why and how your prediction would occur?

I have a law degree and a business degree, but I’m having a hard time finding a job. I’ve spent a lot of time and money on school, I’ve posted my resume on numerous job sites, but unfortunately, I’m running out of ideas on where to find employment. I need to make a certain amount of money to pay off my student loans, so I need help with suggestions on types of jobs that I am qualified for and where to find these jobs. Thanks.
