PwC 🐟: filled out my background investigation form for PwC Tuesday. What do they verify with former employers? Just your dates of employment and maybe salary? Or do they use these as reference checks?

Sounds like you have something to hide 😁

They'll probably just verify employment. I assume you gave the number to HR.

And yes just gave the generic phone number or the number to the HRSSC if avail

Usually the dates of employment. If the employer does not respond you may have to provide copies of W2 or tax returns to verify employment. Usually takes 10 days

Hello all,

I'm a PA in the PNW working for a private group staffing ED's in several hospitals. Recently the group has asked the PA's to take on a couple new roles (triaging and rapid track from triage i.e. straightforward ESI 4, 5). With these changes the PA's are considering asking for increased pay in the form of an addition of a COLA (cost of living adjustment) to our normal salary. Was wondering if any other PA's in the ED have these in their contracts and at what rate.

-Thanks
