Checking More Than Just Your Credit Report



When is the last time you ran your credit report? If you listen to the experts, you check it out at least once a year. Now, let me ask you about a background check ...

When is the last time you ran a background check on yourself? If you're like most people, you never have – and that's not a good thing.

Know What They Know
Why should you run a background check on yourself? Don't you know your own past? There's actually good reason to do so. Employers and potential employers run background checks. Even friends and family members may run one every now and then. Shouldn't you know what they'll see if they do?

Background checks, just like credit checks, do have room for error. People may have the same name as you – maybe even the same birthday – and their information can end up on your background report. That's not a good thing if the person has a questionable history.

How Do You Do It?
So how do you go about getting your background check information? The same way your employers or friends and family would – you order it online. Sites like Intelius and US Search (two background check companies rated highly by consumers and comparison sites like Star Reviews) both offer background checks for nominal fees.

Best case scenario? Nothing shows up. Worst case? You have a horrid past that even you didn't know about. If that's the case, you'll be glad you ran a background check and you can start working to correct any errors you came across.
