Employment Background Verification – An Important Exercise

Increasing your human resource is indeed a blissful experience. But, it is equally important that a newly hired person should be a positive increment to the organization. A person should fit not only in terms of skills and qualification, but morally and ethically as well. Undoubtedly, a good employee is an asset to an organization. A good hard-working employee ensures the success of the organization. On the other hand, a bad employee can cause irreparable damage to an organization.

Over the years, it has been absorbed that many potential job seekers adorn their resume with numerous false degree and certificates. They think that it is an easy way to fetch fast employment. Other than this, many job seekers lie about their experience and hiatus in their employment history. Hence, reviewing the employment background of the candidate is extremely important.

However, all the organizations carry out the initial screening to check the authenticity of the candidate. But, most of the time organizations are forced to believe whatever is written on their resume. They do ask supporting documents, but they can never be assured about the authenticity of the produced documents. Most of the companies are not equipped in terms of time and resources to contact every single institute or college that is mentioned in the resume. Moreover, companies cannot gauze the behavior pattern of the potential employee at his or her previous workplaces.

Employment Verification service is a unique way of employee verification that offers an immense peace of mind to the employer.

The report includes information like, how regular was a candidate in his or last workplace, they report will let you know the actual reason of the gab of in the employment history. Whether or not potential candidate has created a chaotic situation at workplace (this includes alcohol consumption during the office hours and any type of spat physical or verbal with the co-workers.)

A candidate who is approved by the screening agency is a subject of relieving to an employer. Now the question arises, how feasible is screening service from the economic aspect. Whether or not it will be an extra burden on the company's finance department.

Can small companies afford this service? Yes, why not! Do not fall a prey to a notion that it is an extremely expensive service and only big and affluent companies can afford this. It is quite easily available service, which can be obtained at reasonable prices.

However, there are various agencies, which offer employment background verification service. Always check the previous track record of the organization before hiring them. Keep in mind that not all screening agencies are trust worthy.
