I guesstimated most of my previous employment dates - will offer be rescinded after background check?

You are overthinking this it’s a check to see if you blatantly lied not messed up dates. If you were convicted of a federal crime then you should worry if not please don’t think anything will come of this.

Thanks. Do you think it would be worth it to call HR though? "I approximated some of the dates on my resume, to be precise I left x company in February and not May. In addition, I actually started that other job in 2015 and not 2016 and I left the following summer as opposed to staying another year"

Honestly that last part sounds really bad. I'm pretty sure I just guessed a couple of dates and ran with it. I didn't even get the year right. I'm actually starting to wonder if maybe it's a copy/paste typo. Since I used a template to formulate my resume I have to replace all of the data very carefully and perhaps through several iterations with different work experiences and student orgs I could have just forgotten to change the date.

It's this really insignificant student job that I never get asked about/talk about in interviews. It was a freshman year job so I really didn't think it was relevant. It shouldn't really even be on my resume.
