When a job application says they conduct a consumer report?

is that the same as a credit report?

A consumer report sounds a bit better, doesn’t it..?

A simple credit background will be pulled from their choice of the Big 3 agencies, likely Equifax.

Disclosure law may require them to supply you with a copy of the report, depending on your state of residence.

Many companies use a search-service that provides any public-record info available, such as court-criminal history, traffic offenses, and the Sex Offender registry of your state.
