Hi I've been offered a job where they will do a detailed vetting and security check.
Will FAB come up on this check as I don't want to lose the job because of this or should I delete our profile?
Any advice gratefully received. |

Is it DV? SC? I have done both and happy to give you advice via PM if you like. Luke |

"It's DV "
I had DV for over 10 years. I have had conversations with vetting officers. It's a thorough process depending on which government department is doing it. It's not a case of whether you can hide Fab from them - it's a case of whether you should. If you get it wrong you can lose your job with no notice period.
If you want more direct input let me know via PM. |

The vetting officer who interviews you will already know the answers to the questions they are asking you.
They are more interested in your integrity around your answers. They are also more interested in dodgy connections and poor credit/money management.
Male had has been subject to DV for over30 years now due to his job. |

After email address leaks from other sites, we never use our everyday email addresses for this kind of stuff. Not worth the risk.

Generally, as already pointed out, they'll be checking on your suitability for the role, in conjunction with what is entailed within your job.
That will include your Credit / Financial history, any involvement with Law Enforcement authorities in your past, and so on.
Unless you've been publicly caught up in seducing a major diplomat, MP, or a member of the Royal Family, you should be ok! |

They will already know the answers to any questions they ask you.
This is a check on your honesty, integrity and whether you are trustworthy.
Tell them when asked, be open and honest.
Honesty won't cost you the job, the opposite could do.
They've heard it all before, many many times.
Being on Fab is nothing to worry about from that perspective.

I've done research on CVs previously to check a candidates suitability for a role. My employer was more concerned about if the candidate had any far right views (or far left) membership to the BNP etc..rather than their sexual proclivities.
So a potential employer would be more interested in your football team than your sexual history. |

Sc/Dv is carried out by vetting officers employed by the government. It goes much deeper than googling someone’s name. The whole process can take a long time.
It’s the sort of clearance required for government work where a subject has access to knowledge which should not be shared.
You can and will not get clearance for the smallest mid demeanour, however if you are honest through out the process they will be realistic with you.
They take all issues seriously as they are assessing your suitability to be trusted with state secrets/documents and access to restricted areas.
Once you have got clearance it doesn’t end there. You are constantly scrutinised and must tell your vetting officer if you encounter any issues.
They will scrutinise you’re previous financial history, and ask you questions about your sexuality etc.
They are testing to see if you would be open to bribery to pass on government secrets etc, so if you have a poor financial history that’s one thing that could be seen as a weakness. |

Btw I’ve never been asked about FAB, and it hasn’t caused me a problem. |

"They'll check your social media, but I doubt FAB will come up"
It will come up.
One of the questions will be about sites you belong to, which is why it's best not to hide the truth, they'll know the answer before they ask the question. |
