Was laid off a couple of months ago from a tech role. Currently interviewing for jobs but have been telling the companies that i'm still working so I have a better shot at landing something. Might be getting an offer soon so now wondering how to handle the BG check.
From what I researched I can just provide the actual dates in the BG check form and should be fine but I also know the HR person from my previous company personally (small startup) so I was thinking I could just ask her help me out. Are there any legal issues if I were to ask her to lie for me?
