What will my background check show about my previous employment?

Does employment history show up on a background check?

  • Answer:

    Depends on if it is a criminal check or not. A criminal check will only say if you have any criminal history or not and maybe the last time you were convicted. Employment history is limited to verifying that you worked at a listed employer or not. Most employment background is limited to the last 10 yrs.

depends if there was anything criminal involved with previous employment are you talking about a Criminal background check?

It depends. There are companies that report that type of information to database repositories. For the most part the two options you have is to conduct a database employment search, but not all employers report, or one can verify employment history via resume style information. If you'd like to see which companies report information on you: http://www.efindoutthetruth.com/preemploymentscreening.htm

It might show your past employer or two, but just the name and address. It will not show how long you worked there or how much you made.
