Not true at all honestly. I know someone who did something similar and I swear the HR screening shit is a complete failure. This person is over employed making close to a million a year and has never been caught or questioned even when the background checks showing 5+ companies.

Yeah things can come back as "not able to confirm" - for example if a bogus phone number is given and the person declines to provide evidence of a job, and HR doesn't care. Background checks aren't pass/fail.
