Question on job hunting - heynow - 05-01-2012 06:03 PM

I am currently on WC. I have been actively job seeking for the last 6-8 months. My question...Is there any way a prospective employer would know that I am on WC? I have been on many interviews and have zero jobs offered. I have had several people tell me it is because I am on WC. I just don't know how a potential employer would know this without me telling them or without running my SS#. Any thoughts on this? Thank you.

professional background checks can reveal litigation and even claims activity.

As I am sure you already know. Make sure that you are not applying for a jod that would require activities that violate drs. orders

Would you need a Social Security number for this?
