Don't have a prospective employer call your current boss. If your current boss knows you're looking for another job, he/she could fire you! The prospective employer should realize this. Feel free to give earlier job references, of course.

What to do for job references if let go?

(Disclaimer: I am not a lawyer, nor am I an HR person) My understanding is that if a prospective employer calls your job references, the former employer can only verify the dates of employment.


Is it likely that an employer will check your references once you have started the job?

It is very unlikely that an employer will check your references once you have started the job. Anything is possible, but I can't imagine why the employer would do this at that point. If a prospective employer plans on checking references, it will usually be done after you have been interviewed but before you have been offered the job. As soon as someone wants you out (boss or co-worker),k if they have access, they will use it against you.


Do you have reference list answers in interview?

It is always best to bring a list of references to an interview. This list should include both personal references and business references. That way the prospective employer can get a good feeling on what type of employee the person will be.
