How To Get Around A Background Check

[kenkenif]

If your a good citizen, havent been in trouble in over 7 years, and been arrested twice for petty theft. Is it possible to change your name, and then when the employer cnducts there background screening nothing comes up? If the social matches, but the name and DOB are not matching to the record, then there will be no positive background check. ??

This won't work. Instead, be truthful on your applications.

Name, SSN and DOB not matching always trigger a negative during a background check.

Ever heard of honesty as the best policy?

and you don't think the fact that the name you gave does not match the SS isn't going to throw up a few red flags?

It may be harder to explain this rather than the old charges. The discrepancies may toss you out of the running for whatever you seek simply by the fact of no match with no further investigation on the part of the possible employer.
