Studies show that a significant percentage of job applicants misrepresent their employment history. Common falsifications include:
Verification Methods
Database Searches
Our employment searches access databases compiled from new hire reporting, income verification services, and other sources.
Direct Verification

What We Verify
Legal Considerations
Employment verification must comply with Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) requirements when used for hiring decisions. We can advise on proper procedures and authorizations.
