employment verification

Proving your work

Employment verification is the process of confirming someone's work history—typically their job title, dates of employment, and sometimes salary.

Employers, landlords, and lenders request verification to validate claims on applications: The bank required employment verification before approving the mortgage.

HR departments handle most verification requests, though some companies use third-party services.
