Background Checks: Has the past really passed?

In a day and age where job prospects are not as plentiful as they once were, it is important to ensure that we strive to be the best job candidates possible; but that doesn’t mean we’re perfect! You may have a bad credit history, a run-in with the law, or even a photo or two on facebook that you’re not proud of. Although these are all pertinent issues to a potential employer, to what extent can a company check your past when applying for a job?

It is vital to get informed and know your rights as a potential employee to ensure your legal rights are protected. Here’s a section of my book “The Employee Rights Handbook” that deals with just that.

Part III. More Strategies to Effectively Resign From a Job

Another important point to remember  is to always review your current contract or letter of agreement. If notice is required to be given, do this so you will not violate the contract’s obligations.  For example, if your contract requires you to give 30 days’ notice before leaving, you must do so to avoid the company claiming you are in breach of contract.

    I can't recommend Steven Sack highly enough. He is an exceptional employment lawyer—knowledgeable, strategic, responsive, and incredibly effective. From our first conversation, I felt confident that I was in the best possible hands.

    Steven achieved an outcome that far exceeded my expectations and brought an enormous sense of relief during an incredibly stressful time. His expertise, professionalism, and ability to navigate a difficult employment matter were truly outstanding.

    If you're looking for an employment attorney who is experienced, compassionate, and delivers results, I would wholeheartedly recommend Steven Sack.
    Alexandra Lombardo
    From my very first conversation with Steven, I knew I was in good hands. He took the time to truly listen to my situation, made me feel heard, and immediately gave me confidence that I had the right team on my side during one of the most difficult times in my life. One gesture that I’ll never forget was when he sent me a copy of his book with a thoughtful handwritten note. It wasn’t something he had to do, but it showed the kind of person he is and how much he genuinely cares about the people he represents. His guidance went far beyond legal advice. I can’t say enough about how grateful I am for Steven and the decades he has dedicated to advocating for his clients. It’s clear that this isn’t just a profession for him. He truly cares about helping people move forward. I feel incredibly fortunate to have been one of his clients, and it was an honor to work with him. I’m deeply grateful for everything he did for me and would recommend him without hesitation.

    I have heard about Steven being exceptional, i.e real "employee attorney", straightforward and honest. Now, I have'd first hand experience working with him and can add to that he is also a remarkable human being - tough, and realistic, and a real pleasure to work with: he is returning calls 24/7 and get you the best deal you can possibly hope for!
