I can see why employers do this, as the referrals an employee serves up is going to be positive. I know it happens, but something about it still feels wrong to me idk. I guess if I owned my own company I'd be ok with it but as a prospective interviewee it would make me nervous. I know, if you got nothing to hide and been great, you got nothing to worry about.
Has a back channel ever hurt your chances at landing a job?
