BACKGROUND CHECK QUESTION - advice appreciated
Hi,
Recently offered a new job I've accepted. A question on the background check/induction forms essentially asks if I've ever been fired/requested to resign/suspended from any previous employment - years ago I was asked to resign from a waitering job at a restaurant because I could no longer work the shifts they needed me to work. Do I need to disclose this? My job is FO at a BB if that makes any difference (ie are banks more stringent about this stuff)?
Assuming I don't need to disclose it because there is zero relevance and I can't imagine any way the bank would find out....aware I'm being pedantic but I'm excited about the job and don't want anything (however small) to derail it.
Do I need to disclose? Thanks a lot.
similar situation as well, thanks for posting as I was about to start thread on it. i was "terminated" due to not meeting sales goals but was still able to collect unemployment, how would a future employer view this. also any of you forced to provide salary history and inflated the numbers? tia
I can't say for sure but my best guess is future employers won't care if the new role is non-sales related but may care if it is? Can't comment on providing salary history as I'm entry level/just starting FT work.
Please use common sense. No need to disclose this. No one cares.
Now don't waste any more time worrying about this.
That's what I thought. Thanks for confirming.
Stop using the ? buttton you are fine
I think OP's latest comment had a ? in it because he was trying to answer the other commenter's question but wasn't 100% sure.
OP, looks like consensus is you don't need to disclose.
@bobbyfillet, someone who is a bit higher up and has been involved in hiring may be able to answer your question accurately. Perhaps @SSits and @DingDong08 will have some insight for both you and the OP re: whether you need to disclose being asked to resign from a hospitality job years ago when filling out a BB's induction forms and protocol on inflating salary etc.
