I had a job for a week, can I get a reference for this?

Think of it this way, do they really know you after a week?\nNo.\nDo not use this as a reference but if it the only job you have ever had, list on your resume that you have had experience doing ...\nand then put down whatever that job entailed.\nDo not be specific about the place though since you do not want them called. It'll look bad that you only stayed a week.

You should be able to contact the Human Resources office of your old employer, assumint they are still in business.  Considering that it was your plan, you are entitled to the information within.

Yeah, its been a week-go ahead and call the recruiter.  It will show your interest.

Ask the Human Resources department for this information and if it's the company you currently work for then they will have no problem giving you this information. If it is for past companies that you have worked for then try contacting the head office and asking them to send it to you and hopefully they will be happy to.

Contact the HR department of your past employers. They have to be able to provide you with copies.

Sorry but you are in breach of your contract (assuming it says you give a months notice) unless by mutual agreement.\n\nIt is not clear if they are only paying you for the final 1 week or making a deduction over and above that.  If you only worked 1 week and that is what they paid you for then that is reasonable.  \n\nIf they are making a higher deduction then this is probably inappropriate and you could most likely make a successful claim against them - unfortunately this is something that requires you to get specific legal advice including sight of your contract of employment.  Be aware though they could counterclaim for breach of contract!\n\nHope this helps

Do not bring it up unless asked.\n\nYour former employer BY LAW is only allowed to verify the dates of employment, position and compensation....that is LAW.\n\nHowever....some employers will take liberties and attempt to blacken your name.\n\nHave a friend call your former employer under the guise of a hiring manager for XYZ company...and have them ask about your employment etc. You will then have a heads up on the type of answer/reference your former boss is handing out to the people calling in. It is better to know up front than not at all...\n\nBest of Luck.\nBTW...take the lesson learned from your experience and avoid making the same mistake at your next place of employment.

Type up your two weeks notice. Remember to state how wonderful it was to work their and how much you enjoy being their. Tell them you would love to stay, but you have recieved a job offer you can just not refuse. They should be very understanding. Heck , if it is that bad, they may ask where you are going and if you would keep them in mind. I used a similar strategy when I left my last job. They asked me "What can we do to make you say? Would a $2/hr increase keep you here?" That is the response I got. I left that job just before it shut down with a few good references, both typed and in word. Good luck

Most reputable employers will check out any references that you give. I wouldn't risk forging it, because eventually, it will be caught, and could ultimately end up with you being terminated.

If you know where they worked previously, they may have information of where they work now.  Otherwise, try a google search.  They may be listed in their employer's online directory.

Apparently, you got a BIG BREAK when you were hired! Walk around the office with a legal pad in your left hand and a bottled water in the other...stop by other peoples desks and ask there opinion on small matters, it gives appearances on work related issues

It depends on how much hassle you want to go through. If you are worried about future job references,legally all an employer can say is when you worked and what your wage was. It doesn't matter what is written down. I'm not sure if you can file a grievance as an ex-employee but your work should have some system to deal with termination disputes. You have to decide what you hope to get out of your grievance and whether it would be worth your time.

Absolutely.  This is usually a period called probation.  This is typically explained, up front, to a new employee.  You should have had an orientation or at least been given an employee handbook - which is your responsibility to read.

Yes, but it would have to be small claims court. Make sure you bring all the paper work you can muster up, especially your child's statement, the fact that the DA couldn't proceed.. and that you did indeed lose 2 weeks for work because of her. And some pay stubs to prove how much you would have made. Mention your feelings, how it embarrassed you at your work/or in front of your boss.(Don't dramatize it though, just mention)!\n\nYOU CAN SUE FOR SLANDER AND DEFAMATION OF CHARACTER.- because you lost work because of her, I think your chances are very good. I wish you luck!
