If you were a good employee, but had a misunderstanding with your former employer you should have tried to get a Letter of Recommendation. It's tough to prove that your former employer is saying anything bad about you so there is little you can do. I don't know how long you worked before, but, if it was just a year or two then on your Resume just skip the last job if you can. I have done that. If they ask just say you took the year off. If I don't trust the former employer I will choose a Supervisor or another person with a position in that company for the next possible employer to contact.
Employers usually ask applicants their reasons for leaving a previous job. Potential employers may call the previous employer for a reference.
If a prospective employer calls your previous employer, the previous employer can say whatever they feel is true. If you don't want a bad reference, you may not want to put your previous employer on the application.
Employers can ask that in every state.
Most employers will want to talk to your previous employer in order to get to know how you work and some of the qualities you posses. It is always a good idea for you to respect your employer as they may very well influence whether you get the next job or not.
To my knowledge, employers can ask about your attendance. They are NOT permitted to ask why you were out of the office. They are NOT permitted to ask questions about your religious or sexual orientations. They are not permitted to ask specifics about whether or not the previous employer thinks you are ugly or a liar or whatever. If the potential employer does ask these, you can file a lawsuit. If the previous employer makes untruthful, slanderous statements about you, you can also file a lawsuit.
A potential employer may ask one of your former employers questions about your work habits, your punctuality, your honesty, your work ethics, your personality. All things that will help them determine if you are suitable for their company.
Yes. You can roll a previous employer's 401k balance into a new employer's 401k. You can also roll a previous employer's 401k balance into an individual retirement account (IRA) if you wish to maintain control over the investments.
Employers are NOT restricted in making factual comments on former employers. They are liable only if they make knowingly false statements. Prospective employers can ask about your former job, too.
You might get a job offer over the phone.
They can only provide dates of employment, and salary paid.
