In a perfect world, everyone is completely honest in their job application.
But the truth of the matter is that’s probably not always the case.
What happens if your employee commits a crime? While HR Departments have almost exclusively focused on running background checks as part of a pre-employment recruiting process, 12% of the workforce will be arrested in the next five years (source: SJV).
Some industries require specific skill sets to recruit for them. One of the fastest-growing industries with specialized recruitment is tech — a broad term covering everything from software engineers to developers.
Salary is the most important – and often most intimidating – part of any job search. Many job listings advertise a salary range, which helps applicants know what to expect and filter out positions that don’t meet their individual salary needs. However, some applications ask you to provide your salary goal before you even enter negotiations.
Bringing new employees into your company is usually unavoidable, but the process is often lengthy and filled with many potential potholes. Hiring somebody involves taking a leap of faith to some degree.
Generations have a habit of looking dismissively at what’s coming next. The baby boomers thought Generation X was the slacker generation, while even Millennials are starting to be disappointed at the latest incarnation – Generation Z.
Different background check services are suitable for different purposes. For example, not all will be FCRA-compliant; therefore, they won’t all be suitable for employment screenings or certain other purposes.
Job candidates often have to furnish a lot of information during the hiring process, like their identity, work experience, training background, education history, and certifications or licenses.
Growing businesses need reliable hiring managers to acquire the best talent. However, the person interviewing and hiring the new talent won’t always fully understand the position they need to fill.
You've just given an offer to your dream employee, and you're excited to bring them on — the only thing is you won't be meeting them in person.
How can you ensure your new virtual hire has a seamless transition into the company? It's a stressful situation that many hiring managers and HR departments are finding themselves in with the rise of remote work.
Some jobs are physically demanding in nature. For example, jobs that operate heavy machinery or equipment can take a physical toll on the body.
Emergency services like paramedics and firefighters must have the working capacity to handle the demands of the role.
Your workforce is the heart and soul of your company. You need trustworthy, qualified employees to hit your business goals — but building a quality team isn’t easy.
Are you an employer hoping to make the right hiring decision? Background checks produce lots of information, including non-adjudication. Learn more here.
While education, qualification, and licenses are important factors to consider when evaluating a job candidate’s suitability for a role, they should not be the sole criteria for making a hiring decision.
