Hi,
I was employed with an MNC in 2008, I had forged my CV and submitted a forged certificate of 1 of my previous experiences. My actual experience with that employer whose certificate I forged was from July 2007 till October 2007 and I edited it to Feb 2007 till October 2007. I was a fresher and did not know that Employers actually verify certificates and can take serious actions. I came to know only after the offer was rolled out to me by this MNC. I know I shouldn't have done that but it happened in immaturity. I was asked to leave that MNC or was told that I will be terminated either, when they found this about me. I chose to resign and leave. The HR was really too rude and told me to write my reason for resignation in a paper, to accept what I had done. I wrote it and signed off. She told me I will not be getting any relieving for the period (3 months) I worked. I did not utter a word. She told me she will blacklist me in the complete financial services industry such that I never get employed anywhere for this sin I committed. I was absolutely broken by this. But just after a span of 2 months I got an opportunity with an MNC again, but was not as big as this one, a mediocore firm, with whom I am working for 1 and a half years now. I had told them in the beginning itself what had actually happened with me and why I had to leave. They were happy with my honesty and hired me at a better pay as well. I had applied through a referral actually, and was taken in very easily. As it was a small and growing company, I could see some such cases were people were taken with worse backgrounds than mine. The company is really happy with my work and has given me role changes twice, no change in designation though. But now I am looking for a change. I had submitted the offer letter of that MNC here as I didn't have salary slips.
Now my questions are:
Firstly, why do companies do the background check after you have completed so much time in the organisation?
Secondly, was my mistake such a big thing to throw me out?
Thirdly, similar case was heard in that same MNC who threw me, and that person was not thrown out as he had developed a very good rapport with his manager, why was this so? That person forged his salary slip I heard.
Fourthly, I don't want to mention those three months of my life anywhere, is that good?
Fifthly, Is it really true that I am blacklisted?
Sixthly, if I do not mention these 3 months, is it possible for anyone to phase out even in background checks?
Lastly, I want to be honest in future, but I am really scared of losing opportunities, what should I do?
Please advise.
