Employment Verifications involve contacting previous employers to confirm dates of employment, the position held, and eligibility for rehire. Wherever possible, brief references are taken. Employment History is one of the most common areas of embellishment on a résumé. BackCheck contacts head office representatives of past employers to verify specifics of employment.

Cross referencing a candidate’s work history with résumé claims and the ID verification component of a credit inquiry provides a powerful tool to backup initial results uncovered by BackCheck during the course of reference interviews and a criminal record check.
