As far as I understand, background check entails referencing past employers about the candidate. I was wondering what might raise a "red flag" for HR? I assume there is a difference between getting in physical fight with co-workers and using a cell phone during work. Any thoughts on this?

I don't think they call previous employers. I still remain close with my boss from my college days and I know they never called him. I reckon they only call if something looks suspicious.
I think it is more just to confirm employment dates rather than to ascertain the quality of your employment. Firms are very reluctant to talk shit about previous employees due to the threat of litigation.
