“But the resume said she worked at ABC Company!”
It’s amazing how often employers are shocked when they find out (after the fact , of course) that someone didn’t work where he or she claimed to have worked. But whose fault is it that the person was hired? Noneother than the employer! After all, the discrepancy could have easily been ferreted out with a simple employment verification.
The problem for many companies is that true employment verification takes time and energy… and organizations (especially small businesses) don’t always turn their manpower over to the task. Instead, they assume that all resumes that come across their desks are on the up-and-up.
In the end, they are often surprised when they find out from a screening company like VerifyProtect that their “perfect” job candidate lied about where he or she previously worked -or- at least fibbed about the job he or she held there.
Believe us — we’ve seen and heard it all, from flat-out lies to half-truths that would make Pinnochio blush. In the end, it’s why we always recommend employment verification if you’re serious about hiring someone for all the right reasons!
