Criminal background checks\u00a0are at the core of most pre-employment background investigations, but they are not the only type of background check employers use. Verification checks are often a part of the equation as well. These types of checks help employers determine whether a job candidate was honest on his or her resume or job application. Since details like education, work history, and professional licenses or certification are typically top considerations in any hiring decision, verifying that these details are accurate for all top candidates is often an essential part of the employee screening process. Educational and professional verification checks serve to provide that kind of fact-checking.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
At Blinkx, we provide four different services that fall into the verification check family: employment verification, education verification, professional license verification, and reference verification. We have outlined the basics of these verification checks below.<\/p>\n
As an employer, you can never be certain a job candidate is portraying themselves honestly on resumes or during job interviews. It is not unheard of\u2014or even uncommon\u2014for a hiring manager to come across a lie on a resume. Verification checks are a powerful way to defend against lies or half-truths. Using these educational and professional verification checks as part of your pre-employment background screening process will make it easier to find the best person for the job. When you can make decisions based on information that you know is accurate and truthful, you can hire with much more confidence.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
