Wondering...
Is it illegal for a previous employer to tell a potential employer the exact reasons for once termination?

not illegal, but most employers only share start and stop dates, and job function. telling more might get employer sued, so why buy trouble when there is no real need to do so.

I believe what you are talking about is black balling your/ reputation..I would wavt to know exactly what was said. It could be illegal unless you would say you do care,; contact a lawyer. not a job sight;

I don't believe so

No, if you gave them permission then it's not. It's sad how some agencies don't give a f about your livelihood.

SUPPOSEDLY it is but I DON'T believe that SHIT!!!

Usually they must go thru corporate to get hire dates and end dates and any written up or serious issues other then that no they Can not give out anymore info. Even if asked. Well at least in Iowa

If the potential employer is asking.. Its not illegal. If they are going out of therir way Thats just rude;)

If the potiential. Employer is asking no... If he is going out the way Thats just rude ;)

Nope they cannot its called blacklisting DEFAMATION and you can sue for attack on your reputation and the company for beech of confidentiality means of all data and information relating to the business and management
They are not supposed to say anything that could potentially disqualify you from being hired
