Background checks - how many years 7 or 10?

Great forum. Pleasure to be here.

How long back do I-banks check work history? 7 years or 10 years?

I worked for a no name start up back in the day that no longer exists. I also have no paper work to back me on this. But it was more than 7 years ago now.

Really want this job. Any views?
