The moment you realize that
you need more workers for your business, it indicates you are expanding. But
how to conduct the interview and what and how to check before issuing the
letter of appointment?

If you check, you will find
several private limited companies, as well as Government companies, conduct
employee background checking process. By conducting this process, it is
possible to check the records of candidates before hiring them. Various
parameters are checked, like educational records, past work records, payslip,
and many more. This employee
background verification is mainly done based on the data mentioned
in the resume submitted by the candidate.

The need for background
checking of an employee:

Based on one of the surveys
conducted, it was found that there is a chance that a company can hire one
wrong candidate out of six. These wrong candidates normally misrepresent their
details and credentials. So, if the HR team of a company does not pay attention
to the authenticity of the credential, then there is a big chance to hire a
wrong candidate. 

Several candidates do tend
to apply for a job by presenting fake certificates. Hence this is necessary to
take the background checking service so that such frauds, can easily be
identified. It will stop the company from hiring any wrong candidate. 

So, what are the details
one can find with employee
background verification?

 

  • The agency will check whether there is any mismatch in the educational
    qualification or not. 
  • They will also check the experience gap
  • Work experience in other unrelated industries or companies
  • Whether the degree is fake and collected from unrecognized
    universities
  • Is there any criminal activity case booked against the person who
    applied for the vacancy?

These verification's will
help to protect the company from fraud and other criminal activity. So, safety
is the prime area to focus on by conducting this background checking
process. 

It is also necessary to
check the licenses of the applicant. All the licenses must be current and
updated. If it is found that any license got cancelled by the previous employer
during the probationary period, then the candidate will not be hired.
