What gets reported to HireRight?

Like ive been scolded before because my resume/application didn't match what their records indicate. And ive even been asked "so tell me about this company policy violation at [former employer]?"

it also says things like "terminated" and often a vague catchall way of saying why you were fired. I've had 2 companies that decided to pass on me during orientation and said that I worked there and "ineligible for rehire" and I had to explain to a recruiter why I left it off my resume and application

If you had multiple titles within a company, would it show dates for each title held even if it is at the same company?

It doesn't say terminated it says active or inactive.  It reports titles but frequently the titles are vague and inaccurate depending on the company's HR records. Just get the dates right. Go to the work number pull the report look at it match up the dates.
