Take it from Mr. Interview himself, baby

 

Never ever tell HR anything other than “I’m quitting”

Your goal as an employee should be to avoid HR like the plague. HR is Lava. They have cooties. Stay. Away.

 

I wont pile on to what Max and Dave said but do know this is terrible advice.

 

I'm also very acutely aware of who my HR is at my current company, due to one of my buddies being an HR Coordinator here last year. His former boss, and boss's boss, are two of the dumbest, most retaliatory people I know.

 

HR is verifying job title, start date, end date, and eligibility for re-hire. they aren't providing references and unless your office is extremely small, no one in HR is gonna go to your manager to tell them they just processed an employment verification (which is used for more than just job apps!) for you and get you fired.

 

No let’s listen to Dylan for once and see what happens

 

i am always right

 

Brother I know you're trying to be helpful but this is not how it works for us common folk lol

 

Stop

 

Would absolutely not give the job I want any contact info for my current job.

 

buncha cowards in here

 

I absolutely promise you the first thing HR is doing is calling your boss to inform them of a churn risk. 1,000%. You couldn’t be more wrong here.

 

love a churn risk - murph

 

Employment verification is dumb

 

employment verification is used for more than just hiring processes, like loans, government benefits, child support, rental applications, etc.

 

Dylan I’m literally a manager of people and I’m telling you you’re wrong lol

 

Dylan isn’t wrong about that at all lol. I still wouldn’t give my current employer just in case.

 

Dylan is such a corporate shill

 

HR can tell the difference between a new job asking for employment verification and a loan.

 

I was acting HR at my last company for six months and had to do a few verifications and they always came through a third party.

 

my HR person rocks and is always very helpful

 

I don't remember who our hr person is.

 

Yeah Dylan isn't wrong that employment verification is used for other things, but he's absolutely wrong to ever give that information to a new employer lol

 

100%

 

What I’m hearing is that I’m right as usual
