So I accepted an EB offer for SA 2021 and for one of my internships at a tech company on the West Coast, I was recruited as a software engineering intern but then when I got there did more of the finance side stuff so wrote finance intern. My offer letter still says Soft Eng intern but my boss can confirm I was a finance intern will this come up in Background checks or do they only look at W2 and not offer letters?
