What shows up on pre employment background checks?

If you got fired from a previous job for violation of company policy and leave that job off of your resume will that show up on a pre employment background check for a different job?

generally NO
there are a few service providers that check work references but most don't. a lot depends on how much the employer is willing to spend on a pre-employment check. these checks are covered by all the same laws as credit checks. Fair Credit Reporting Act

a background check consist of information found in public records that involve criminal, judgments, workers comp settlements, licenses and certifications etcetera. they use your name, aliases, address, former addresses, social security number, drivers license/state ID and birth date to locate information.

a reference check uses employers and personal references that you provide to check character, work habits, employment verification and job performance. generally the reference check is done by the prospective employer.

It really depends upon how thorough your new employer is. Such information is generally pretty easy to come by -- so it doesn't take a lot to find it.

Also, you might look at the new application for the new employer...there is probably something there about lying on an application being grounds for termination.
