At any residency and fellowship program, it is necessary to pass a criminal background check because your credentialing and state licensure will rely on it. Your interviewers ask this question to ensure that you can pass any required state or federal background checks required by their institution if you were to join their program.

"I am willing and able to fully comply with any background and verification checks required to join your program as a Pediatric Emergency Medicine fellow. I have clean criminal and driving records and have never had any issues with employment background checks or credentialing in my past."

If you can successfully pass a criminal record check or education verification, explain that you have a clean record. If you have any blemishes on your records and cannot pass a criminal record check or education verification, be upfront about that in the interview process. The fellowship program will be more forgiving if you are honest about anything that will show up on your background check.
