You need a background screen to know whether the image your candidate presents is valid.According to recent studies, between 46% and 53% of all resumes contain errors and falsehoods. With a tight job market and strong competition for every opening, job seekers often feel a compelling need to meet all the requirements in the job description – even if it means bending the truth or outright lying. HR Reco’s employment verification services help hire with confidence.
Education and Employment History Background Checks
To ensure accuracy, HrReco employs a global network of employment verification experts to help hiring professionals quickly spot inflated resumes and falsified employment histories. Highly trained team members conduct interviews with former employers and supervisors to verify each candidate’s work history and capabilities. Clients can furnish their own questions or use our standard questionnaires.
HrReco’s e-verification process uses email to deliver an average 30 hour reduction in turnaround time over the traditional telephone approach. That’s because people are more likely to respond to an email than a phone call, so you get more of the information that could affect your decision. And because people can answer email from wherever they are, you get those results sooner than playing phone tag.
The result? A faster, clearer candidate history.
nfortunately, inflating education credentials is a common practice. HR Reco offers education verification services that confirm dates of attendance, course or study, degree or credential received and the date the degree or credential was awarded. This may include GED, high school diploma, college or advanced degrees.
