Not sure what's going on in the name of BGV these days.
I mean companies ask for payslips, relieving letter and docs before rolling out the offer.
After that also, they are checking addresses ,calling references, sometimes asking again for documents, sometimes even bank statement.
Seriously I don't believe that a professional would be required to do this much anywhere outside India.
Gives me a really weird feeling.
Moreover its not just 1 company so many are having such scrutiny. Anyone else feels the same ?

And if you are going to any software company which is of banking side, they check your CIBIL score too! One of my friends whom I referred was asked to clear off his pending credit card bills for bgv to be cleared.

Well may be I am being egoistic here but after providing so many docs directly to the company what is the point of third party firms asking addresses for past 5-6 years, asking for manager contact no and official email for all past companies, not just your last company.
Are you going to bookmark all your managers contact no and emails.
Not even sure what happens to our data.
Even after having aadhaar and passport , this is the case.
Seriously this process needs to improve IMO.

+1. I'd hate it as well and has never happened to me yet.

One thing to remember is that its not the companies doing so but the 3rd party identity verification firms that are going the extra mile to impress their client. I wouldn't judge a prospective employer, sometimes they might not even be aware how intrusive these BGV are.

Lol...these companies are next level.

You know what! actually we have access to production real time data in banking domains, so if the candidate have fraudulent nature they he/she will definitely try to misuse it😬 so they do those kind of checks
