I didn't want to seem like I was "butting in", but I just wanted to let people know that getting a background check on someone is a llooootttt more difficult in the real world than in the movies.
I onced posted a reply on a "professional" oriented website when someone asked about not telling the truth about their own criminal history..boy, did I get "yelled at"....some people felt it was okay to lie..they would take their chances that the employer would never actually do the background check.
