I did a search and read a bunch of threads, but most of them were about dancer licenses showing up, which I've never had.
But my very first job in the industry was bartending and doing promotions at a corporate SC. And they kept records.I got a W2 one year for bartending. When I switched to promotions I was considered an independent contractor--I was never given a 1099 or any other tax form, but I did get several checks from the company, and they did have my SSN and stuff on file. They use a legit-sounding business name--you know how some clubs have "XYZ Inc." on their checks and receipts and such. But I typed their business name into Google and it's apparently really easy to find out that it's an SC chain.
Anyway, I'm in school and I desperately want to work in pediatrics. So I'm freaking out about the possibility of that job coming up on a background search, especially bc I'd be working with kids. How likely is it that this would come back to haunt me on a background check?
I have no dancer licenses, no criminal record at all...but I'm paranoid about that one stupid job showing up on a background check and screwing me out of my dream career.![]()
