Background Verification Worry: Will My Location Mix-Up Affect My Job Check?

For a BGV, I mentioned that I worked for Company A in location X. However, I was actually working with Company A in location Y for six months as a trainee and then later got transferred to location X. By mistake, I updated it as location Y. Will this cause an issue with my BGV?

Hi, your final and last working location was X, so there is nothing wrong with that. Even if there are any questions, you can explain the situation. Also, although the locations are different, as long as the employer is the same, there won't be any issue.

Be careful and share the right information with the employer when updating about yourself. All the information you share can be used against you if found false and fabricated. Furthermore, you can feel safe knowing that you are undergoing training, not employment.
