I once taught this guy the basics of a particular technology and he barely understood it. I had to correct all of his errors and even I was just a beginner in it. In fact I considered myself such a novice that I didn’t even put it on my resume. After he was laid off, not only did he claim to be an expert on his resume, he created a consulting company that specialized in that technology. That’s when I realized, I need to exaggerate my accomplishments or no one will ever hire me.

Ive had 1 offer rescinded due to a background check. I should note that Ive held 2 different government security clearances which were easy compared to this companies background check. The company required a 10 year background check plus full education back to highschool. They had trouble verifying employment because 3 of the companies I worked for no longer existed and could not verify (The companies had been gone for 9+ years) They also had issues getting highschool records even though I had college records. Partly because I was homeschooled (my mom and my grandmother were public school teachers at the time) Some companies go overboard on the background checks.

Turns out it was my father's record (I'm a junior) and the records got mixed up. I tell the company that I applied to that these are wrong, this isn't me, I can prove it. They still rescinded the offer. Then I dispute it with the background check company and find out that they didn't cross-reference the birth date when they made their report. These companies who believe that the background check process is infallible need to wake up and stop using it as absolute truth!

The only thing I was worried about on my last background check this year was I changed my title from account executive to account manager for a role I did 4 years at because it actually better reflected what I did. AE is sales and what I did was more account management and servicing. When I would interview with the original title, people would see me as a sales guy when I wasn't looking for sales jobs so I was kinda forced to change it anyway.

One of the most amusing results from a background check that I've ever experienced was discovering that one of my past employers was still reporting and claiming me as an employee with them. I worked for the company for about two months before quitting due to all the concerns I had then which had stacked up. Gave my notice, they let me go on the spot, and I went straight to a new job I had lined up. Ended up with a call from the IRS on the topic and talking to them they agreed that a new start date along with a steady history of employment since then on my part to match my tax returns was a much better explanation/evidence than any offered by that one not so great employer from five years past.

Texas does NOT require you to disclose anything more than 7 years ago. Other states may have different rules. It doesn't matter if it's a felony or whatever, and a lot of stuff is felony in the US, getting a felony conviction is not as hard as you think. Basically in Texas if you paid the price, is off the books, you don't have to disclose it if it's 7 years ago or longer. It however only applies to jobs that paid $69,995 a year or less. Also another thing, Federal felonies is actually harder to find out about. This is because all Federal records are only contained in the NCIC, and civilians are NOT allowed to access this database, and law enforcement can only access this database as a part of a criminal investigation. You can call a court house and ask but it will likely be a name check, without knowing the exact case number it's really hard to know if there's mistaken identity. If an employer wants to see ALL records, state or federal, then the employee must obtain a FBI background check from the FBI. You will have to submit a fingerprint card, mail it to the FBI, pay 18 dollars, and wait about 3 months. The FBI will access AFIS system (this is the system law enforcement uses to run fingerprints to identify anyone who has been in the system), find your info, and print your criminal record if any exists. I know it's good to not lie but honestly the way the law works in the US, if you have a felony conviction, even an old one for some BS, it's better to lie if you can get away with it, because otherwise you'll never have a job. All criminal information should be confidential and accessed only on a need to know basis, and discrimination based on this info should be illegal. This is the case in most country. Background checks are never done unless it's for a job requiring a security clearance. If they needed your criminal information, you must request it from the police.

Since the only option is Yes or No on the application and will not allow any specifics to be entered, how would the employer know if my disability will not prevent me from doing a great job? I wear one hearing aid and I've been putting NO as my answer because it won't stop from performing any job function. In the past, it hasn't stop me from being an engineer, trainer, mechanic, or a manager. It didn't even stop me from being a volunteer firefighter.

I know I have recently passed a background check for employment with a company, they usually ask you something like “is there anything you would want to make known before the background check” or something to that effect. And I wasn’t asked for a drug screen but I know some companies want both a background check and a drug screen. Which I have no problem with, personally. Some companies also want a polygraph and maybe that would make a good idea for another video in it of itself, if it hasn’t already been done. I just want to add in general If a company doesn’t see the value in a potential candidate then there can be no potential gain on either end, so it’s not just the loss of the candidate, but also potentially the company may lose out on having a great employee. Especially if the background check doesn’t come back favorable which could be for any number of reasons. I’m concerned more so about technicalities in the actual process itself.

I always order a work history report from The Work Number before applying. The report shows your work history, companies you worked for, job title at each company you worked for, rate of pay, and what benefits you received. Many companies out there will tell you verbally what your job title is, and list a different one on file with The Work Number. When you list a different job title on an application than is on record, you may get an employment job offer rescinded. That is why I list the title that shows on the report. Also many companies use The Work Number to have a potential employer call for employment verification because they do not do it inhouse. By listing your job title as it appears in your history report on your resume shows a prospective employer that your title and information matches. This pleases the pickey employers you may come acrosd when looking for a job.

I would like to say that I don’t lie on my resume, but what I do is: If I have 1 and a half year of XP and they ask how many years of XP I have, I’ll say 2 (obviously). That’s a common sense IMO. I’m not gonna take 6 months of experience off my work history just because the hiring managers get butt hurt or judgy. They better do their job right then and reject me. lol 😊 Another thing I do is: If my resume doesn’t say I know X and they ask me in the application if I know X, I’ll say I do know X. Why? Simple, because I’m not gonna waste my time applying for a job to find out 5-10 minutes in that they won’t even see my application because I don’t have X. If I happen to go on an interview and they bring that up, I’ll make them pull out my resume, or I’ll pull out my resume and I’ll ask them if it’s in my resume. Like that. I don’t get attached, I don’t expect any call. Currently working, applying for jobs just for salary improvement. We all need to improve somehow, so of course I need to find a job if I want to improve. Not gonna be a hypocrite, but I’m not gonna undervalue myself because of them either.

I have been through with a company that took a long time to do my background check but then eventually extended a job offer, and I have also been through with companies where we had a great rapport during the job interview but then suddenly ghosted me afterward. The only thing I could think of is the background check. I did a self-background check and it came clean. However, after watching shows about how mistakes could be made by someone else or something I may have put a check in a certain application document in the past which on the surface does not relate to anything about employment but now is the hinder of employment. If I contact any of the companies that ghosted me, they will just be going to give me excuses that they have someone else who is more suited/qualified/etc. than I am, and not provide any real reason why I am now no longer in consideration. How extensively do most of the employers that do employee background checks do their checks? If I don't know for definite that it's my background check that caused the companies to ghost me after the great interview, how do I find out and correct those mistakes?

A lot of companies don't care about the degree, but they WILL care if you LIE about having one. Job titles are a tricky one. In a previous job at a bank, I was simply an "Assistant Vice-President." That's all the bank exposed to any background check. But my functional title was a "Senior IT engineer" which was never exposed to anyone requesting a background check. That said I never lied about either one but on my resume I would put "Senior engineer" and in the background check I would put "Assistance Vice-President." I had to also supply a redacted pay stub to verify employment for background checks. Always be truthful!!!

I have to disagree with the "massaging of titles" thing. You shouldn't do that, especially if you are in a technical role. There is a big difference between a low level "systems engineer" and an "architect". I can't tell you how many times someone has tried to pass themselves off as "architecty" when in reality all they were was a simple programmer. Another one I see a lot is adding "team lead" to every title on your resume. You may have been a "team lead" on a particular project, but that does not mean you were the "team lead" of your group or department. It can lead to a lot of confusion, especially when the company is looking for someone who has actually managed people...meaning, they are looking for someone to take a leadership role. This is more than "I completed two projects and I happened to be the subject matter expert at the time." Don't massage titles. It will inevitably be exposed in the interview. Save yourself the humiliation. Just be honest.
