It depends if you lied to get the positon. Some companies like to perform a background check before they hire the employee some like to do it later. If your company did it later after you worked there for a while, then no. You lied on your resume saying that you graduated from a certain school and you didn't. That school you said you graduated from has no record of you being a student. It was your fault that you lied to get that job.
