Yes, IF the old employer goes looking to do this - I was thinking of that case when I posted my last post. The likelyhood is low however. If asked why the new employer hasn't taken a reference from them OP doesn't have to answer beyond "I don't know".

OP can't undo missing this employer off her CV that she sent to the new job. Inventing more excuses such as an operation etc. is silly when most employers won't even question why they haven't been approached for a reference!

EDITED to add: OP is also a temp - its run of the mill to see temps leaving without decent notice. Its not great but its the nature of temp work that people do leave at short notice if they find other work. The reference request should go to the agency if they wanted to do one anyway.

OP actually confirmed they were paid direct by the employer. It was not an agency temp job but a temporary contract direct with the organisation and hence the contractual notice period.
