Screening helps ensure quality and integrity
The majority of untruths in resumes relate to work experience (44%) and education (37%). For example, (unintentional) mistakes are often made in noting the period of employment; someone may indicate having worked for an organisation until July 1st when in reality it was until June 31st. However, not all untruths are innocent. It may be that the individual’s job title is deliberately made more significant. For instance, the job title on the resume may contain more responsibilities than in reality.
Pre-employment screening
It is important to know who you are hiring and screening can help uncover these kinds of inaccuracies. Pre-employment screening ensures that any discrepancies and errors that are consciously or unconsciously included in the CV are brought to the surface. This allows you to discuss them further with the candidate. If it turns out to be an innocent mistake, then there is nothing to worry about. However, if it concerns a deliberate action to defraud, then prevention is better than a cure.
In-employment screening
In everyone’s life, situations may occur that an employee, but certainly also an employer, has not taken into account. These situations can pose an increased risk to the employer. In-employment screening provides a valid basis of trust within an organisation. This mainly involves checking data in the event of a change in function or promotion. By screening your current employees, you can continuously guarantee integrity and quality.
