  1. So this is kinda off topic but this is where I can find most experienced people. Any advise or insights will be helpful. Recently, I applied to a company for a software developer internship (Very big multinational company but not primarily tech). I had a phone interview with the HR and then 2 interviews with the engineering team. During the phone interview, the HR rep. asked me for my GPA, since its not mentioned on my resume and pretty low. Hesitating I said 3.0 when in fact, it is 2.8. Well, that was over and I did very well in the other 2 technical interviews. Turns out, I have been offered the position. However, they will be doing a background check (vendor is First Advantagee). Do you guys think they will access my transcripts and verify the GPA amongst other things? Some things I have heard so far... 1. most of the time, companies only check to see if the applicant is enrolled or not and degree status. 2. Because of FERPA, most schools will not disclose transcripts and GPA information. Has anyone gone through something similar ? Thanks.
