The Wheat From The Chaff
When it comes to prospective employees CVs it’s important to know who is telling the truth and who is perhaps stretching it a little (or a lot).
If a company cannot identify this in the early stages of recruitment it could be potentially damaging to your organisation.
A recent survey found 33% of firms stated they had not checked their employees credentials, what these firms may be surprised to learn is that the survey also found that 7.5 million jobseekers claimed they had provided misleading information on their CV’s.
Many applicants lie on their CVs, about things such as work credentials and employment references. However, as an employer it is your responsibility to hire the best candidate for the position, but you may not have the time or the right resources to follow all your potential employees’ credentials. If this is the case, PeopleChecking may be a valuable solution for your company.
Our PeopleChecking services can conduct precise employment checks with a report provided to you via email within five to ten working days. We thoroughly check an employees work history and previous employers. This service will require the approval of the employee you are investigating.
We offer a professional CV check, which contains a written employment verification check from a candidate’s previous employer, this check verifies the work history, job position, and period of employment and the reasons for leaving that employment.
We also provide academic and professional qualification checks, including degree or secondary qualifications, or any trade memberships. Details of the dates, subject, institution, organisation and grading achieved will all be thoroughly checked.
