Background check has a separate form with fine print and things to fill in like previous employer name, contact, position held, date, etc. Some companies may omit this and just use your resume's "Work experience" data to trace or whatever job portal you keyed in your past employment data into.

Anyway... just give the consent. It's just this $400 pay difference right? Position title, company you worked at, start date and end date, all accurate?
It's a standard job application form that companies ask you to complete before interviews with a work experience section where you list your employers, what you did, why you left, salary etc. You also have to give references etc. The form says by signing I give the company permission to contact past employers about job performance.

Ya. Just the pay difference. The rest all accurate.
