In the 2009 issue of New Jersey eAuthority, there was news published regarding the Schley v. Microsoft Corp. case. Apparently Microsoft revoked its written job offer to a candidate after failing the background check. According to the story, the plaintiff was sent a letter by Microsoft telling him that he?s being offered a job for the company. It did however, mention in the letter, that the offer only is effective if he?s cleared after the background check. He probably missed that part through all the excitement, because he ended up, not only without a job, but without a home as well. It seems that he went to talk to the hiring manager who, maybe simply trying to be friendly, suggested he quit his job, sell his house, and transfer from New Jersey to Washington, to be prepared for the position, which he instantly did so. But he l treadmill desk ater then was told he failed the admission for the job after being found out that he had a felony conviction record.This incident is a grave example not only of what jumping into conclusions could do, but what a criminal background check result could cause. Although the story might have sounded so negative because of the deprivation of work for the said plaintiff, it should be remembered that the letter was at some pointed drafted to mean well. It even included the conditions about the offered work. Almost every establishment around the state, especially the large ones, requires not only a criminal background check for its employees and applicants, but a comprehensive background search all in all. These background checks cover everything from previous employment history, to significant license and credit records, and many more.
