Does Your Accurate Background Check Have Errors?

Pre-employment background screening can be the deciding factor a company uses when making the decision to hire someone. With so much riding on your background check, it is important that all the information is accurate. Unfortunately, background check errors are common. The most common types of background check errors are outdated information, and mixed files. Mixed files happen when information belonging into another individual ends up on your report. This type of error happens often with common names. Mixed files are most damaging and often result in application denial due to inaccurate criminal history.

If you find errors on your background check provided by Accurate Background, it is important that you know your rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA).
