I wonder how background check usually work. Is SSN linked to the school degrees? How long does the background take? I have 10 years experience staying in the US.
Typically, Background checks use SSNs to search county records for criminal history. Employers contract with vendors who search through databases looking for hits. Depending on which counties you haved live in, checks can take a day or two or a week or two.
I don’t know that anything is verified on education unless you are in a specialized field like medicine or law.

They’ll search LexisNexus. They have a lot of data on you.
