Just to wake u up.

Before I joined Accenture,

I got an email, from an Australian company saying that they have been authorized on behalf of Accenture to conduct a background check

Where they called up the hr department of my company , talked to my immediate superior.

So yes.. they do give a shit,

if my hr department said, i was a lousy worker, do you really think ill be working in accenture right now ? o_O

There are 100 applicants. 99 of them, hr department said they are good, but for u, ur hr department said some negative things about u, rumour or not, why would a company hire u, who was a risk, when there are 99 others. =D

Not like you have such unique skill set that the company would die without .

Just my 2 cents.
