Why it matters

Resume Fraud is More Common Than You Think

Inflated titles, extended dates, and fabricated roles appear on resumes more often than most employers expect. For regulated industries, an unverified hire creates real legal and operational risk.

Resume Fraud Is Common

Many resumes contain inaccurate employment claims, including inflated titles, extended dates, and fabricated roles.

Salary Laws Vary by State

Some regions restrict salary history questions. Turn automatically applies jurisdiction specific compliance rules.

Direct Employer Outreach

When records are unavailable, Turn contacts employers directly and follows up before marking as unverifiable.

Required in Regulated Roles

Healthcare, finance, transportation, and government roles often require verified employment history before hiring.

Frequently Asked Questions

A check that confirms a candidate's work history: employers, job titles, dates of employment, and sometimes salary or reason for leaving. Turn verifies this against payroll records and by contacting employers directly.

Typically dates of employment, job title or position, and employment status. Salary may be included where state law permits. Some employers only confirm dates and title.

The lookback period depends on your needs. Turn supports 1 to 10-year lookback windows. Many employers verify the most recent 3-5 years of employment history.

Domestic verifications typically complete within 2-5 business days. International verifications take 5-10 business days. Turnaround depends on how quickly past employers respond.

A DOT-regulated verification required for commercial drivers. It includes standard employment history plus previous drug and alcohol test records and safety performance history. Turn offers this at $11 + PT per employer.
