Sorry for the noob questions, but what exactly is PRIA, what is covered, and what information is developed?
Also, how detailed are airline background investigations?
Do they run a credit check?
Does the scope of the background only relate to DOT/airline jobs?
What information do airlines expect to get from employers that have nothing to do with aviation/transportation?
By what timeframe are these backgrounds usually completed? In indoc, 6 months after hire, etc.?
I'm familiar with military/security clearance/law enforcement backgrounds and how in depth they are. They are completed BEFORE you ever get the job. Can't imagine an airline background needs to be so comprehensive.
