[quote=Anonymous]My field is small enough that I will know someone one who knows an applicant. I am not afraid to call a Professor from the grad school to get there opinion. In my 20 years of hiring, a few people were helped by that (I was borderline on hiring vs. just leaving the position vacant), and one person was hurt. (The person never finished the Doctorate because we found out they fudged the data). I alway check references, but they might not be the people you list.[/quote]
