I don't have a problem with them checking, but I'm curious if I'll have the opportunity to clarify my position and reasons for the short stay.To be honest, I believe they won't provide a negative recommendation. It's mostly a matter of mismatched expectations or miscommunication.

They won't officially give a negative recommendation.... as the phone call that revealed the reason never officially took place. Always assume they will find out in a close knit startup community
