SCREENING TALENT ENSURES THE RIGHT CANDIDATE FOR THE JOB

Just because a candidate says they are great doesn't necessarily mean they are. Finding qualified talent is becoming an increasingly daunting task in today's job market. However, hiring an individual with false credentials will end up costing your business money instead of generating revenue.

By conducting pre-employment screening on all of your candidates, you will be protecting your employees, customers and shareholders from dishonest individuals. Pre-employment screening will also protect your company from negligent hiring litigation. When retaining talent is such an important aspect of today's business world, how can you afford not to protect the assets that make your business successful?

By working with FirstHCM's qualified team of pre-employment advisors, every individual working at your company will be the person you want representing your business. Our goal is to shield you from hiring individuals with artificial backgrounds so you can truly know who you are doing business with.

Background Screening:

• Reference Interviews - Because your candidate has never been met by the person taking the reference, you know that your reference checks will be free from bias and not influenced by the candidate's personality or performance in an interview.
• Employment Verifications - By verifying dates of employment, positions held and reasons for leaving, you not only confirm that the candidate's references are legitimate, but also that the company providing the reference is real.
• Criminal Record Checks - Prevent the hiring of unsuitable individuals and protect your company from individuals who might have a history of violence, theft, or other serious offences.
• Credit Inquiries - Not only will a credit inquiry reveal negative or fraudulent banking information, but it will also help protect against candidates who may be using stolen identification. Identifications also reduce success of "beat the system" attempts by providing false name or date of birth information during the criminal record check process.
• Education and Credential Verifications - Education and Credentials are typically one of the most exaggerated portion of a candidate's résumé. By receiving information direct from the institution, cross referencing between the institution's report and a candidate's résumé becomes increasingly accurate.
