I just applied for a job at Abercrombie and Fitch will they call my current employer

<p>On the sheet it asked me about my current employer phone, address, company, supervisor. Will they she call my current boss? Without letting me know as I did not tell him (current boss). I simply want another part-time job for the summer. I did not give them permission to at least I do not think I did. I am in college and just finished Freshman year.</p>

<p>Laws Applicable to Massachusetts or USA in General:
Also what can and he my current boss say about me?
Also what can and can't the prospective manger say about me?</p>

<p>I have only been working at my current job for 2 months. Should I inform my current boss that they might call? I rather not</p>

<p>THanks</p>

<p>My parents said there must be specific box that says can we call the employer.</p>

<p>If they call, it's usually to get some sort of direct reference from your current employer. If it's just another summer job (presumably to get more hours = more pay), then why not tell your current boss? Have you done something bad and/or are you on the 'bad side' of your boss?</p>

<p>I think he has neutral feeling about me, I work checking in guest part-time at a Court Yard by Marriott. Most employees there are full-time, and they show it. They pretty much think I am just some college student here to fill some holes in their schedule. Management shows it too. Which is why I do not want him thinking I am going to quite or anything or un-loyal. The full-time people are very loyal to the brand. I get $11 hr and only been working there for 3 months so I really can't complain. Whats AF pay like?</p>

<p>I hope I get the job at AF or some retail clothing store, so I can work among peers. Do they usually call? And what are the rules/laws in regards to what they can ask?</p>

<p>Generally isn't it considered unethical to call a present a employee?</p>

<p>its A&F don't even trip lol
they probably won't call
and as long as you mesh/look like the type of worker at A&F you'll prob get the job</p>

<p>I seriously doubt that they will call. Also, I believe the pay is minimum wage.</p>
