Military
background check
was initiated long back and it used to be done by police whereas
nowadays it is purchased as a service from private business.
The main advantage of military background checks is to confirm
the information found in the application/resume/curriculum
vitae and to see to the honesty of the employee.
The categories under which the military background check is
conducted are broadly classified into four headings. They
are the pre-employment screening, credit check, criminal history
check and government security clearance screening.
The variety of checks done in the military background check
are the educational verification like the name of the school,
degrees and professional qualifications, year of birth and
year of passing out from school/college or military academies.
Employment reference check, character reference check, gaps
in employment history, verification of the present and past
address of the candidate, terrorist check, check on the validity
of the pass port, money laundering, credit history like bankruptcy
and criminal
history check.
It also includes the Driving Records Check, the Licensing
Verification, Military Record Verification and International
background check. Criminal background checks are done in the
court records of the county, state or federal levels. The
crime is classified into two levels either felonies, or misdemeanors.
Felony is a major crime and punished severely up to death
sentence, whereas misdemeanor are lesser crime and it can
be petty theft or assault and it is punished by fines or a
mild imprisonment
The
reports of the military background check is done quickly and
submitted in a variety of formats which is convenient for
the user as well as the organization. These reports are provided
through fax, remote software, secure website and e-mails.
The report can be prepared in a couple of days and the
military background check report contains the following details.
Full name and gender, military branch of service, military
status whether active duty or reserve or veteran etc. If
the employee is in active duty then the name, rank, date of
commission in the military services will be recorded in the
report. In case the person is retired, the date of retirement,
the pension amount, dependent members of the family etc. Finally
it shows the military pay grade.
The military organization has a wide range of information
and technology which could be helpful for the enemies. Any
unauthorized release may cause a war, and may loose our military
and civil personals. An investigation into the security clearance
check ensures that the particular military personal can be
allowed to access to national security information.
