Employee previous work background check question?

I’m applying for a job and I left out my previous job on my resume and application.

My question is how is it possible for that job to show up on a background check if I never included it on any public documents (such as credit card applications, or any other job applications, etc). The only record of my last job was in my 2007 income tax return and that is “technically” information not available to the public – including private investigation firms.

What are the chances that an employee background check will catch this exlcusion?

Thanks!
