TLDR, for this person's experience, FA did NOT cross reference what was submitted vs what was on resume.

List of Background Check Companies
Was looking at the Greenhouse API and came across this support page: A list of every background check company they integrate with: https://support.greenhouse.io/hc/en-us/sections/360000685091-Candidate-background-check
Interesting for us as it gives us a large list of BGC companies....
fiverr resource for faking paystubs
Can someone recommend a worker on fiverr or upwork to doctor up some paystubs for me? I just need to change some info on real ones (like dates, etc) and black out a few items the employment contractor doesnt need to see

Truescreen
I would like to know any of the good, the bad, or the neutrals with Hireright as a background check company for OE.
Site: https://www.truescreen.com/
Database used: TWN, and sometimes IRS data...
Solution:
TrueScreen has a very nice QA on their website where they describe how they verify work history. They use TWN and.. IRS data. They even list the forms required. The IRS is tight as a drum when it comes to taxpayer privacy. If it weren’t then the tax returns if a certain former president would have leaked years ago.

This is none of their business anyway. If anyone has any other information on TrueSceeen, please let us know.
We know that working under Booz Allen among other federal contracting companies have used Booz Allen, and we have seen some members in private DMs report that there can be some employment data lifted even with a frozen TWN. Proceed with caution if using booz allen as a J2 or J3....
Hireright
I would like to know any of the good, the bad, or the neutrals with Hireright as a background check company for OE.
Site: https://www.hireright.com/
Database used: TWN, and sometimes third party databases like ChexSystems...
Solution:
In my experience, hireright outsources their background check investigations overseas. They are great under the following OE scenarios:
1. If you want to continue keeping your J1 (as they respect not calling your current employer 95% of the time [see more below for the asterisks*])
2. If you want to hide your employment after freezing TWN
