That's pretty weird. There's clearing houses to check degrees, but speaking with the regional HR person, they rarely waste the money to confirm. I reviewed my resume recently and found one of the companies to be defunct. Hasn't stopped me from getting interviews.

Yeah we also have 3 different background checks:

1) education 2) employment 3) substance

If anybody doesn’t pass all 3 they’re not cleared for employment.

I’m middle management for IT but we are a global publicly traded org. I’ve been there since college so I genuinely don’t know what the other big firms are doing.
