Reference checking firm?

[crochet_lady2]

I am having problems finding another job and am suspecting that I am receiving a bad reference from my previous supervisor. I have done research on this topic and have found a few companies that will check a reference for you for a fee and report to you what the employer said. Has anyone used one of these services? Any suggestions??

And if you find that he or she has given a bad reference to a prospective employer?

As long as what is being said is true, you likely have little recourse.

You could not list this supervisor. Find someone else at this facility who will give you a good reference
