A client is a customer. Your business provides services and sells to people. Those people are the clients.

A vendor is someone who provides your business with some type of product. Could be the pencils and pens or a desk.

A 1099 – some sort of American Tax Form.

A background check is when the company checks into your background. They see if you have ever gone to jail, been arrested, etc. Why is it done? Well, if you are going to work with children, the company does not want to hire someone who went to jail for sexually assaulting children!! Or sometimes, high end companies don't want to hire certain people with criminal records as it will tarnish their image. No company wants to be know as the company who has the murderer Mr. X on payroll.

Recruitment can be done in many, many, many ways. You could post an ad in the newspaper, on some job site. You can go to a job fair or pace it around with word of mouth. The framework that is involved varies from company to company. Usually the first meeting is with a representative of the HR department and the second (and final) meeting is with the manager of the department (e.g Accounting)
