Does anyone know if they typically verify college summer internships? I provided the correct hard facts, titles, dates, etc., but am a little worried because it was a completely unstructured/bad internship and my manager really didn't like me so I could see him shooting down the "responsibilities" that I noted. Not sure whether (A) they even typically call part-time jobs/internships or (B) whether they go into the responsibilities or just keep to titles/dates/comp. Any thoughts would be helpful. I believe I was honest in my app but can't help but be paranoid about something going wrong.


You should be fine. I was stressing too, but the fact is that it's all ok and if they need something they will call us. I have not been through the process, but I read that they don't usually go into the fine details unless they are told to check something.

The Re Vera website has various options for schools to choose from, so I guess it really depends on the schooll.

Hello guys. I have a couple of questions about employment verification by Re Vera Services.

Do we need to provide all the HR contact information to Re Vera or they will find them on public website??

This is for people who are from non-English speaking countries. The people of a small company I worked for do not speak English. Does anyone know whether Re Vera going to call or email to verify employment history? If they call, how do Re Vera deal with language barriers? They have different people (who speak the language) in charge of each different country? I am worried if they call my company and the HR dont speak much English...

Thank you in advance for your answer. Enjoy your summer.

Do you think they will check undergraduate internships, if documented in the app? I listed a bunch of them and it will be a pain to verify them one by one...
