What can my employer disclose at interview?

Hi All,

Been trying to find some information on this but can’t seem to find anything difinitive so thought I’d reach out directly to the HR community.

The business I work for has recently recruited a new senior manager into the business. I have just found out that, during the recruitment/interview process, some information about a dispute I was having with a Reseller/Partner was disclosed to this candidate prior to her being offered a contract.

Is this allowed? Can my employer disclose information about me to a job candidate without having my consent?

Any help on this greatly appreciated

  • The way that it was said before the offer was made gets insignificant to your specific circumstance since she *was* extended to the employment opportunity and *did* acknowledge it, so whether she was given that data previously or after the occasion is immaterial to whether that affected her choice to - in your words - oversee you out. One set up, obviously, data about the exhibition of her subordinates is totally important and sensible for her to have. What she decides to do with it falls outside the extent of GDPR.
