“I was providing full time care for a critically ill family member”
There’s no database of jobs you’ve held in your life. Getting fired only screws you over if you tell the next place that you got fired. If they do a check and find posts, just says it’s a different person with your name. Also, stop cataloging your life on social media for anyone to research, it has never helped anyone.
Wait, you mean I don’t really have a permanent record that I’m never allowed to see, following me through my life? But they always said “it would go on my permanent record.” Now you’re saying they were lying?
The Work Number maintains a database of employment records that employers can contribute to, and it’s commonly used for:
Employment verification for new jobs
Income verification for loans, rentals, etc.
Background checks
They also sometimes keep track of “eligible for rehire” status which basically tells whether you’ve been fired.
Also can be used to low ball you in your next position.
It’s run by Equifax. Enjoy the dark rabbit hole I just sent you down.
