QUOTE(cubicc @ Jun 15 2018, 01:42 AM) Q2: Who and what does the future employer usually prompted when they have come in contact with my previous employment companies? Ans: They will usually contact the Human Resource dept of your company or the director of the company (if it is a small company without HR dept) to verify your employment history as below; - Base salary and allowances - Employment period - Character and work ethics - Resignation/termination - Any restriction on future employment set by the previous employer - Will your previous company reemploy you in future? I feel like this is rather "mixed" tbh. On some employment forms when they hire you, there's a part where they asked if they can contact your previous employers (for any purposes regarding your work period with them). You can choose to tick the "no" option but who knows if they will or will not call them up. Still unsure about this tbh.

QUOTE(fapman @ Oct 2 2020, 02:29 PM) I’m just curious how your employer can do a background check on you about your previous employment. What kind of info they can dig about you. Can they check whether you have been terminated from your job or resign? I’m curious because all these under PDPA. So, I’m not sure how far they can go in terms of background checking. Exactly right? My last company wasn't able to pay our salaries in all honesty. But they want all of us to submit resignation letters so they don't have to pay severance benefits. I told my new, current boss about this but I don't see what's the use of it when he claims that he's "good friends with my ex-boss and were ex-classmates since middle school". Its just him implying he can call him anytime and ask, even if they are out for limteh and whatever. They can always drop it during "casual talks".
