How does Extern handle employment verification requests, and what should I do if my request is misrouted?
Introduction
Extern is an education platform that administers externship programs, which are distinct from traditional employment. This article explains Extern's policies for handling employment verification requests and provides guidance on addressing misrouted inquiries.
Extern's Role in Employment Verification
Extern administers externship programs that provide participants with curricular training opportunities. These programs are not traditional employment arrangements, such as W-2 or 1099 employment. As such, Extern can only verify participation in its programs and not employment in the conventional sense.
Key Points:
Externship participants are not classified as employees but as "Externs."
Verification requests should specify the program name and participation details.
Handling Misrouted Verification Requests
Extern Inc. is headquartered in New York and is not affiliated with similarly named entities, such as "Extern (New Delhi)." If you are seeking employment verification for an organization unrelated to Extern Inc., please direct your inquiry to the appropriate entity.
Steps to Address Misrouted Requests:
Confirm the organization associated with the individual’s participation or employment.
If the organization is not Extern Inc., redirect your request to the correct entity.
Update your records to avoid future misrouting of verification requests.
