How does the government perform a background check for a security clearance?
It depends on the clearance. If it is a sensitive clearance, they will ask you for your previous addresses, references, etc. The investigator will typically talk to your references, and get additional names of people who know you.
THOSE people will be interviewed about your character, etc.
These days they are also going to probably dig into your internet history, and look for "who you are" online.
They are going to be interested in two things:
1) You general character.
2) Anything in your background that might, if discovered by an adversary, be used to blackmail you into revealing information.
It is rare that someone approaches "the other side" and offers up the farm. Usually it starts with an innocent approach by the other side for a very small, seemingly harmless bit of information. If there is blackmail involved, the consequences of the blackmail are usually far more damanging in the person's mind than the inconsequential information being asked - maybe just a phone listing that is marked "For Official Use Only" - often information that you would "know" the other side already has anyway - no harm done.
But once the line is crossed, you have committed a crime, and that becomes leverage for more and more demands. They are also usually accompanied by offers of payment, so there is a hook as well as a reward.
That is why the background investigation is interested in finding any compromising information - because it can be used as that first hook in recruiting a long-term spy.
Do warrants for arrest show up on a background check?
== == * Warrants for arrest that are still pending show up on background checks. * It would depend on who is conducting the background check ie; private investigator, law enforcement, etc.
Usually all new hires from that point forward, but I have done work for companies which, because of a new contract they received have to do background checks on existing personnel.
Remember that anyone can do a background check on anyone anytime they feel like it. It's how you use it that the law is interested in. In the case of existing employees an employer would have to get their permission to conduct and use a background check, unless the consent form that they signed when they were hired included future checks.
An employer could tell an employee that he/she needs to sign the consent to be background checked otherwise you can't work for this client hence they may not be able to continue working there.
This is why I advise employers to use a consent form that covers them now and in the future.
