Background check?? Serious!!!

Hi, I was just curious how extensive background checks are. For social media, what will they find? There shouldn't be anything in particular that's bad, but I'm sure I made dumb comments at some point online. If I just google my name and search around, is that all they will find? Also, I am worried that I'm technically on pace to not graduate "on time" by 2 classes, it is not a problem, I am signing up for winter courses, also I have EC's and an off cycle internship that should give me 6 more credits anyway, but is this still a concern for HR?

Anonymous Monkey, what's your opinion? Comment below:

They had me email my transcriptbefore the superday, shouldn't they be aware?

They do use external AI software for your social media profile. It will find other "stuff" outside of a standard google search.

They absolutely will not go digging on old YouTube comments or random Instagram comments... seriously? Private your accounts and you're fine. Social media is not really a big part of the background check - it's really just confirming that you really worked where you did. They are 1000% not using external AI to dig deep for analyst roles - public Instagram where you're making violent threats, sure that might be found, but you are an entry level cog not the President.

只要您毕业时,毕业就可以了,没有人在乎以后必须上课。另外,除非您去找顾问并正式更改您的毕业生约会,您的学校不会纹身您有点落后。

我得到偏执狂,但兄弟你完全很好。找到一种新的爱好,而不是担心这一点。

As I said in my comment above, yes they do use an external AI software for the social media profile part of background check (talking from a background check conducted on myself 6 months ago). Yes they will see old comments on Insta/Twitter etcetera, unless you've made your account private.
