Vetting Your Candidates

C-level Candidates Lie Too—Do the Background Check 

In recent years, a number of high-profile C-level execs have been caught lying about their credentials. Workforce Management cites embarrassing cases at Radio Shack, Veritas, and Bausch & Lomb in which C-level execs were caught making false statements on their resumes—discrepancies that a background check would have revealed pre-hire

“Inflated or outright false… credentials have become common,” reports Workforce Management. Don’t be tempted to rely solely on reputation for senior personnel. The background check is essential in any human resource management strategy as it helps reduce the risk of a breach of trust with employees and customers.

Background Checks Can Prevent Turnover

In addition to preventing PR nightmares, an employment background check can improve employee retention. CEO tenure is shortening, often because companies aren’t investigating how well the CEO will mesh with corporate culture, reports Workforce Management. The background check process must include “intangibles” about personality and management style.

Include Criminal Background Check And Personality Check

A wealth of background checks are at your disposal. Work with proven experts, such as Abso, to determine the right background checks and to streamline the hiring process.

Background check experts will advise you on a thorough background check plan that addresses risk and compliance issues.

With any background check, accuracy and compliance is paramount. Using a background check in violation of state or federal regulations can lead to litigation.

Look to leading applicant tracking systems, such as Abso background check software, that combine technology with personal service to help ensure you can order and process accurate background checks quickly and affordably.

Contact Abso for guidance on your background check strategy.
