Background checks don't always happen prior to getting the position, more often than not, it triggers after work starts.
Does it also in small corporations? or for finding freelance work then.
It depends on the nature of the company & sometimes it's client or a mixture of both.
Never encountered this or heard of it really. Especially not if you fake a certification or people who just fill in gaps in their resume. FIred on the spot for hiding a criminal record, I get, the others, I don't.
Just because you don't experience it nor heard of it doesn't mean it doesn't happen....
Stupid reply. I'll eject here.
I'd also assume many if not most employers don't background-check much as long as it's done within reason. Maybe it's about 50:50?
Good point, and there's not much of a good moral justification for doing it. In some cases you could say the application process is kinda rigged (lets say auto-discarding based on or lack of certain keywords) and you're simply gaming a system designed by another human.
Cooperation with systems pays off a lot more. If you can become a partner of a big entrepreneur or can just understand AWS on systems level, you can build a corporation in some time.
As mentioned, it really really depends on the nature of the business.
Same. I hyped up my experience with certain tasks and would shamelessly fill any gap I had, which seems to be a generally accepted thing to do e.g. "taking care of sick relative" during gap year. It even got taught to me in school.
