Hi, I'm new to this and I have the same concern as OP here.
p411 website doesn't give much info on how the screening process works.
"When we do an employment verification, we simply call the main number and ask to speak to you"
Is that still true? Have there been any changes to the process?

I just went through the process this week--simple and painless. I don't actually work out of my company's HQ, I work remotely (don't have an "extension" they could ask for). I provided a simple script for them to use with the receptionist that was a plausible scenario for somebody to be asking to reach me within the context of my business without raising suspicion at the front desk, and they did it perfectly.
In their call back to ME, they were very professional and discreet in their wording... I knew who they were and what they wanted, but if anybody else had answered the phone, it would have sounded perfectly harmless.
Don't worry--just sign up!
