Omit to list a job demotion on resume. Is it going to impact background check for a new job offer?












0















I have been extended a job offer and the company is going to process the background check for me. In one of my previous jobs, I was demoted to a senior analyst position from a manager position. Although my duty and pay rate was still the same after the title change, I left the company not long after that happened. On my resume, I only listed the manager title as I didn't know how to explain that short period of time being an analyst. But after I ran work history report from the work number, I realized that only the final job titles are listed. Should I change my job title to senior analyst in background check authorization form? Or do I need to talk to HR about this? I am worried that it is going to impact my job offer. Please advise.
