- 3pt14159 5y agoI believe you, but I haven't. Though I haven't done much large sized tech company work other than the Nasdaq gig I mentioned, which was background checked. I think the overall point doesn't really change. Apply. Let other people dismiss.
- abakker 5y agoI think it might be fair to point out that just because they ran a BGC on you, doesn't mean your current employer told you they did. Background checks are incredibly common and the low-stakes kind are pretty cheap to just run ad-hoc.
- vageli 5y agoDoesn't an employer need your consent to run a background check on you?
- abakker 5y agoIsh? https://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/background-checks-faq.html https://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/background-checks-fa... There seem to be some kinds of background check where maybe it is fine and others where it isn’t? It looks like written permission is required, but, they can remove your candidacy for not accepting…so, it is not fully protected.
