It is okay to say NO if you explain somewhere on the app. I have applied for jobs in the past while I was currently employed. I check no and explained that the people that I was working for would create undo pressure if they knew that I was applying for other positions.

They just want to know if you don't mind them contacting your previous employers to double check that what you have told them is true. They won't consider hiring you if they find out you have lied on your resume and application form, and that you can't do what you say you have done in the past.

As a previous business owner I can tell you simply. If you put NO that is the one they will call for a reference unless the employers is no longer in business. By putting no employer usually assume you had problems at that job and will call for a reference to see what issues were there. Is strongly suggest never putting no.

Consider yourself the employer and your girlfriend the employee, If you knew she had a previous boyfriend(s) wouldn't you like to ask a few questions from him about her?

If it's your current employer, you may not be ready to tell them that you are job hunting.

To see what you will say. I always told them yes only if they intended to hire me, if not no!
