I've worked for a company through a temp agency, which converted over to a permanent position with the company. I went through a background check with the temp agency, as well as the company that hired me. I've worked almost 7 month in total. However, after 2 months with the company they terminated me, because they claimed they could not verify my education on my background check. Shouldn't they have confirmed all of that before I signed the offer letter and started working permanently?

This man lied on his education then is confused on why they fired him😭

likefunny

No. I didn't lie about anything. I was completely honest about everything. What sense does it make to lie and then act ignorant to why you are fired. By your response, it seems this may have been an something you've personally experienced. Meaning, lying and being confused as to why you were terminated. 🙄

Is the education info you gave them accurate?

That sounds like it could be wrongful termination then! Surely your school has a way for you to order an official transcript, right?

like

But did you tell them the truth though?

Maybe they were trying to find a way to get rid of you anyways? That sounds petty. Maybe you need to ask someone if this could be wrongful termination. I don't know much about that kind of thing, but I would look into it for sure.

Did they not ask you to provide a copy of your diploma and transcript to assist In verification? Could you not provide those?

I have the unofficial transcript. I offered them that. However, they said they'd need the official.

No, it's up to them when to verify something.
