Welcome to the 2010s, where credit unions now run additional services for employers and HR departments. My company regularly uses The Work Number from Experian.

Interesting. I've always suspected something like this existed and have argued with people against lying about salary history on the assumption that it does. This is the first confirmation I've seen. Thanks!
- srtjstjsj 11y agoI guarantee you that The Work Number does not include the value of bonuses, perks, benefits, and appropriate equity valuation. TWN includes base -- which is what banks care about.
- AnimalMuppet 11y agoBut, in this case, he wasn't lying about his salary history. He was inflating (lying about) a competing offer (that he had no intention of taking). That's a lot harder to disprove...
- joezydeco 11y ago...a lie, I added $20k to my current salary It's right in the text.
- AnimalMuppet 11y agoAh, sorry. For some reason I thought you were talking about his initial job offer. My error.
