They're only suppose to verify that you worked there.

Off the record, they'll ask the obvious "what kind of worker was he" "would you hire him again" kind of questions.

yup. you are not even supposed to answer the what kind of worker they are questions. when i was a manager all we could do was verify employment any additional  questions had to be referred to a 1800 number. (It was a big company)
