My thoughts exactly, filled it in and sent it back telling them to check what their company policy was.Originally posted by DaveB View PostThey are not obliged to give more than that. Most Companies do the bare minimum, on advice from HR and their legal people, as there is too much scope for getting sued if the person the reference was written about decides they didn't like what was in it.
I've had some people come back with happy to give you a reference but company policy states no references given to contractors. The guy gave me references before but their HR peeps have said no as of last year. Still he did give me a reference on my linkedIn profile.Comment
