VIOLATION OF CONFIDENCE OF RESUME
![BUSTER](http://hrforms.blr.com/plugins/DefaultAvatars/design/BlueAvatar.jpg)
What liability would an employer have if they received a resume in response to an ad and placed telephone calls to the applicant's current employer for a background check before they ever interviewed the applicant in person? The applicant's resume requested all information be kept in strict confidence.

At the very least, this is very poor procedure to violate an individual's confidence and I, too, would never consider working for such an organization.
