It's unsettling that these behind the scenes database/cliques exists.
Some time ago, I listened to a podcast (might be NPR) that talked about an employee, who left a financial firm, couldn't find a new job. Every opportunity to which he applied, either rejected him with unconvincing reasons or ghosted him. Later he found out that his previous manager poisoned the well in some shady database to make sure his life outside that job will be miserable.

It's even worse because if he sues them to correct the "mistake", then that also makes newer employers less likely to hire him ("he likes to litigate with his employers, and we don't want trouble"), unless they are actually reasonable and dive in to understand what exactly happened.
