Looking for feedback. For those who OE, how do you handle background checks for new jobs you apply for? Do they see overlapping jobs in the findings?

I OE’d for a few months to save up for something. Once I reached my goal, I quit J2 and kept J1.

Now I am looking for a more senior role and thinking how the background check would come up. For context, I only listed J1 in my resume and not show J2.

It was my understanding that your credit report gets updated with your employers when you use that information to apply for a loan. So if you never disclose J2 as a source of income when applying for any type of credit then it should not show up. This could get tricky if you have to provide bank statements, I had to do that for my mortgage, and the mortgage company would have absolutely asked about the additional funds showing up in my accounts.

Hi! I don’t have much to contribute but curious how did the background check come along?

Haven’t applied for a new role just yet. But based on my research of previous OE forums, potential employers are only allowed to run a check on what you give them permission to (i.e., if your resume only list certain employers, they should only check those employment dates).

However my concern with this, unsure if this is industry specific, but for my current role, when they ran a background check, it pulled everything. Cause I asked for a copy of the report.

You can always try to pass it off as a contractor role
