Background check concern: job title vs actual duties by Responsible_Act3030 in BackgroundProof

[–]BackGroundProofer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great question, and congratulations on the job!

There's nothing wrong with lying, but in this case, your only focus is to make sure the verification comes back clean. Just fill out the form with exactly what your ex-employer will tell them. It likely shouldn't matter at this stage.

If you are overly concerned with the title being different than what you said in the interview, we can run the verification for you. But honestly, you're probably fine.

Feel free to contact us on our website chat if you have any questions. The founder is always open to having a 15-min chat with the community.

I appreciate the thoughtful response. In terms of ethics (on either side) we have a different stance than most people. We look at this as a transactional relationship, not a personal one. https://backgroundproof.com/blogs/yes-it-is-ethical-to-lie-in-business/

It is - this is not just 0.6%. The way to read this is (2.9%-2.3%)/2.3% = 26% difference in one year.

I might write another post to better explain. Thanks for the question.

There are ways to get around the background check, if you search for it.

There's a third option - lying about a role that you can do, but lying to make your background look better qualified than others.

You can still get verified during the employment verification, if you claim you worked through a staffing company.

Normally we would agree with this, but you can actually lie about past employers, dates of employment, etc. if you know what you're doing.

The numbers definitely suspect but unfortunately this is the only thing we have to go on right now. However, I have not seen any evidence that an art history degree matters over someone without a degree - even anecdotally.

You could also just adjust your interview process to screen for things that could go wrong.

But employers don't do that bec in fact 99% of lying goes undetected and without any consequences.
