What shows up in a background check?
What shows up in a background check depends on which background checks an employer chooses to run. • A criminal records search consists of any records on file with county court houses, state and federal archives, traffic violations, and sex offender databases. Quality background search providers use hand-pulled records at the county level and reliable national databases. • A civil records background search reports any civil litigation involving the individual in county or federal court. • More information on specific types of background checks.
