BTW, you don't think a SSN is needed for tax reasons? boggle
Not at the time a person is *applying* for a job, no, it's not needed for
tax reasons.
Applicatoins also have the information needed to do any background
checks for employment. Why would you want to work for a company that
you can't trust with your SSN? Considering the number of people who
have your SSN, isn't this a little silly?
A lot of information is needed to complete the employment process including
personal and professional references. I don't and won't supply those unless
and until there is a determination of a skill set and other match for the
position.
Fair enough but note that you *will* be excluded from consideration by
many employers. I refused to supply this information, once, before
even a phone interview. That was the last I heard from the company.
It's unreasonable for an employer to expect that data at the get go.
It doesn't matter what *you* think is reasonable.
The name of the game is protecting your information. I have had experience
where someone else used my data obtained from a contract recruiter to pose
as me including signing my name and professional license number to federal
documents.
You've already lost. That horse is *long* gone. Do yourself a favor
and don't **** off prospective employers for no reason.
Rother **** them off and not have to work for idiots than to cave and
end up working for them - wishing you had not - be better off spending
your time looking for a job with a decent company - in MANY cases.
Utterly absurd.
