Where do you find your employment history

What do employers use to find potential employee employment history? I want this public list on myself.

Mind reels at why, but there are several sources that pop to mind.

Aside from whatever you list on your employment application credit reports are the first place that springs to mind. Next any public information source that was given employment information. This can include but not limited to court records (criminal, civil, bankruptcy, real estate transactions, etc..), along with any information given to news media such as being interviewed for an article or comment.

Keep in mind it really is the first (previous work history listed on employment application) that matters. In most states you can legally be terminated for failing to provide and or making untruthful statements on an employment application. When they ask "list all previous employers" that is what they mean. If someone in HR or in authority tells you otherwise I'd advise you to get in writing, else that little statement at the end of the application where you sign trumps.

If you want to see some of what is out there start by obtaining your yearly free credit reports from the major agencies.

Thanks
