Background checks - Most BBs in Europe use Kroll?
Not sure what they use in the UK, but most BBs in Europe use Kroll for their background checks. Has anyone been through the process and if so, what do they require?
Kroll was extremely thorough for my US based background check. They called up everybody and verified everything including the start and end months of all prior employment, gpa, etc.
Do you remember what they asked for? I'm just trying to get all the documents ready as a few of my internships are based abroad.
Btw, was this for SA or FT?
same problem here. anyone knows how they would check the experiences based abroad? specific documents needed? it may be somewhat hard for them to call to verify that though, timezone problems...
They have offices worldwide. They call previous employers to verify your employment and dates. I had to submit my transcript because my US school doesn't release GPA to them. I don't think it was extremely thorough. They didn't check extracurricular activities or high school info/SAT.
thanks! that's good to know. it's just there is one little NGO that I used to work for. no longer existed, and I'm having a hard time to track my colleagues now...totally irrelevant to my applied position though...don't know if this will be flagged...
you. will. be. fine.
With regards to what documentation you will need:
You will also most likely need to complete an online process filling in your details, employer references, address locations for previous 5 years etc.
does the employer reference also include unpaid voluntary experience? or basically all the information I put in the resume?
Organization usually use online software for background check like this http://backgroundfinder.com/ .There are many other ways to background of people as well but at Government level they have their own system of checking the background.I have to find a job in Austria ,I do not know how will they find my background?
Europe Background Checks (Originally Posted: 11/05/2012)
I am wondering if anyone who has worked in investment banking or consulting in Europe could provide information on how they handle criminal or financial background checks. For people in the UK (aka my most likely destination): Did your job require an enhanced CRB or just the "normal" CRB?
I have heard that in some continental European countries all criminal records are sealed and rendered totally inaccessible within five years of the end of the punishment. So, for continental people: Do they even do criminal checks on the continent? Even the barest details would be of interest here...I am totally clueless.
The context here, by the way, is my being a US citizen doing a degree in Europe and having some marks on my US record. I believe that under UK law everything should be considered "spent" (although whether that matters for a foreigner seems questionable). So take a moment to laugh, Europeans--then tell me about your hiring process. Thanks.

I am planning to make a new website of my own for a small business, and this ideas about your article content will help me. It is looking just awesome thanks for sharing and just keep up the good work.
background check in european ib (Originally Posted: 01/23/2012)
Will be joining european ib through a vendor next month. I have 9 years of experience in investment banking technology. I was earlier working for bulge bracket british IB until september. Was terminated without notice for gross misconduct. I have not disclosed this in my verification/background check form. please let me know if this will cause an issue in my background check. All my experience certificates are good. i have spoken to my manager whom i have listed as refernce that he will not reveal the reason for my leaving the firm. Can the british hr dept reveal the reason for leaving the firm. The experience leter which i submitted to euro ib does not list the reason for leaving.
You know we want to know what you did.
Hahaha tell us!
I did not do anything criminal. There is no criminal record or police case here. They said i breached a security policy of the bank and terminated me.
e-mailed yourself confidential internal documents? tried to expense a night at the strippy?
Depends who they use? Some companies like First Advantage and Kroll (w/e its called) are tedious to say the least but they just want a confirmation of whether you worked there or not. If you manager said he won't reveal why you left, the bg checking company cant push unless you there is something criminal, that will come up in the CRB.
