Background:
I have an unpleasant history with my previous employer, especially with the HR which led them to not giving me any relieving letters but a letter of termination an year back. I have struggled to find an employment since then and have been unemployed for about a year now.
Recently, an opportunity knocked my door and they want to do a background check on me and require the reference of HR from last working org.
Okay, so I wrote an email to the HR in hope of having moved on for an acceptable reference check. Here is the reply I got back:
Dear [My Name],
If I get any background verification mail from the respective agencywith regards to your employment details with [My Last Working Org.Name], we will revert them for the same.
Thanks & Regards,
[HR Name & Designation]
Now, what do I make of it? How likely is it that my unfortunate incident will be revealed when I request a reference from my former employer?
Note:
- I don't know if its relevant but the country in question is India.
- The company doing the background check(outsourced to it) is a well known MNC
