Has anyone ever has any experience of pre employment screening? I am interested in what exactly they might ask about previous employments--is it likely they would ask for reasons for leaving past jobs?
My DSis is going for a job and had a tricky incident at work three years ago. She left this job having been there for two years after a bit of a row with the boss-it was a mutual decision for her to leave, but probably counts as being sacked so she was able to claim jobseeker's allowance. The company agreed to write her a non damaging reference and she landed a good job straight afterwards which she's been in for three years, though unfortunately, due to the state of this subsequent company's financial affairs, has just been made redundant along with several others-nothing to do with her performance and she will get a good reference.
Anyway-she has just had an interview with a company who use Vero screening (I think) and she's concerned what will be flagged up with regard to this job as they look at all employers in the last 5 years. Is it likely they will ask 1. Did Janet Smith work for you between these dates and 2. Why did she leave?
Then in that case-they will have to say she was fired :(
What do these companies ask??
