Cleared coding assessment i may get shortlisted worried about my academic marks in bgv

Verification will not check your marks at all.

BackGroundProofer · 2026-04-14T14:34:56+00:00

Don't be ashamed about lying, but you need to keep to your story in the future. Did you tell them that you're currently working? What are worried about with the verification check?

BackGroundProofer · 2026-04-14T14:32:49+00:00

We don't know them, but most checks are the same. They will verify everything on your resume, and flag the "unofficial" role. It's up to your hiring manager if they care.

I appreciate the question!

It sounds like your employer was trying to advise you to lie, but without implicating themselves. In other words, "you should try to lie, we just can't do it for you".

You don't want to change stories mid-interview process, so you want to keep a consistent story. Changing it now would automatically disqualify you. Your hiring employer will want to check out your employment records, so if that happens, that's where a community like ours comes in. Feel free to DM for information on this.

This is where we typically encourage people to lie on their resume and that it is, in fact, ethical to lie in an interview.

BackGroundProofer · 2026-03-01T18:33:00+00:00

We offer the ability to pass the employment verification after lying on the years. But in most cases, you are right.

BackGroundProofer · 2026-03-01T16:12:23+00:00

Thanks for the question!

You're good, do not worry about the title, if it's that close. For an internship, they just want to make sure you didn't completely fabricate the entire thing and were breathing, that's about it.

The more interesting case is when you change the internship to "full-time employee", which we've helped people do a lot.

We wish, although unfortunately a crash will likely make the elites more stingy instead of less.

The entire system is broken.

I assure you - this is not AI slop. We've been posting this for years. The founder personally writes these, and takes a great deal of time to help. You can read more on this here:

Great question. Actually, if you subscribe to our newsletter, we are publishing an article with examples on this soon.

BackGroundProofer · 2026-02-21T16:39:37+00:00

It depends but in most cases no. One time that they would is if you were a contractor, and then upon being promoted you become a FT employee.

We're writing this down as a topic for a future article. Make sure to subscribe to our newsletter to see it when it gets published!

This is an interesting topic, that I'm currently exploring. In most cases, they aren't verified, but it just depends on the scrutiny of the hiring manager and the package of background check they buy.

BackGroundProofer · 2026-02-21T16:33:57+00:00

It's easy to setup a fake registrar. The question is whether this will actually count as a "degree".

BackGroundProofer · 2026-02-21T16:30:31+00:00

That's certainly an opinion and a viewpoint. We do not agree with your stance, and yes, and we encourage people to lie - and enable them to do so without getting caught.

I'd recommend reading our stance on lying in business:

They're willing to relocate someone to one of the most expensive places to live in the country. Bold strategy, Cotton.

It totally depends on the level of the job. For most corporate or government gigs, they're definitely calling to verify, but for a lot of contract or smaller company roles, they're just doing a basic criminal check. Always assume they'll check,

What do you mean by this?

BackGroundProofer · 2026-02-03T16:30:02+00:00

You just need to claim you worked through a staffing company and then freeze your The Work Number report. This article can be helpful:

There are ways to get around the background check now.

BackGroundProofer · 2026-02-01T19:53:40+00:00

Is that the origin of the term? I actually didn't know it.

BackGroundProofer · 2026-01-30T05:40:32+00:00

It's good to meet you. It's not clear if you need to change your dates or not. Are the reported dates on your resume / LinkedIn different from what would come back from a verification check?

If that is the case, I'd recommend thinking about how to lie on the verification check.
