Does anyone know of the “the work number” service offered by Equifax? I just found out that this service provides referral artifacts related to employees e.g. computer generated letters/details of employment and income history etc. How is Equifax able to obtain this information? I don’t recall authorizing anyone except my employer to hold this information. Equifax seems to have detailed info, especially income info, for all past employers too. I wonder if future employers can access this info

My old company outsourced employment verification to this company. They provided equifax with the info relevant so they could generate things like income verification for the employee's lenders, landlords, etc without taking up company time

If you ever applied for credit, you were asked employment information etcetera. That’s where it came from.

Most companies use this. You’re good

I'm currently a medical scribe with background in risk analytics and business development(switched from finance to medicine) and currently trying to get into a clinical trial assistant role. Last year, I had spoke to professionals who say I have the skills and experience to join, but due to my lack of clinical experience, I was unable to join. Now after a year, I have 8 months scribing experience in a hospital.

How do I leverage this experience to break in now?

Ex-consultant now in marketing. Used to be an avid follower here and got great insights on companies when trying to exit consulting so thought I’d try here for advice. Outside of FAANG, what are good large CA-based tech companies that provide good pay, WLB, and culture? DD has great people and WLB, but pay is low and you’re not given the tools and resources to succeed + truly make an impact. Google and Apple are ideal but need backups. Like is Salesforce still good? A company along those lines.
