Answer by  flamiss22 (5081)

They look to see if you have any outstanding warrants, subsersive actions against others or the country, any terrorist activities, and any fraud charges.

A background check for positions, say, with federal law enforcement includes a credit check, verification of all details provided on the application and resume, a check of banking records, interviews with friends, neighbors, employers and former teachers. A review of family history checks for criminal associations in an effort to avoid hiring individuals who can be easily compromised.

Federal background checks vary by clearance sought. It is not uncommon for former neighbors, teachers and employers to be interviewed, for family members to be investigated. Credit checks all around.
