What Company Doesn’t Want Great Employees?

“I have great employees!”  What CEO, VP, manager or supervisor wouldn’t want to be able to announce that to all the world and really, honestly, sincerely mean it?  The answer is:  ALL OF THEM!  Yet without background checks, getting great employees is going to be tough.

 

Background screening of all new hires can immediately weed out the hucksters from the hard workers.  Not only can comprehensive background checks save you time and money, but they can also tell you:

 

·         Any discrepancies on a would-be employee’s job application and/or resume.  (This includes work histories and educational backgrounds.)

·         Whether or not your candidate has a criminal record.  (Don’t assume you can easily find this out, either; without the help of a professional screening organization, you could be duped.)

·         If your potential employee has left a positive trail… or a negative one… in his/her wake.  (Reference checking the RIGHT way can give an incredible amount of info!)

 

There’s no reason for you NOT to have great employees.  They’re out there, they want to work and they’ll be your stars for a good, long time.  However, if you aren’t background checking, you may miss a diamond-in-the-rough for the false dazzle of a polished cubic zirconia.  And that would be a shame.

Background Checks – Part of the Hunt for Good Employees

Have you ever felt like the task of finding good employees was beginning to feel a little like an African safari hunt?  It can sometimes seem as if all the “perfect” people are miles away or slipping by you. 

While this is a common feeling among employers looking to hire the best candidates they can, it can also be very problematic because it sometimes leads to knee-jerk reactions.  As soon as someone comes in for an interview, the interviewee begins to wonder “Is this ‘The One’”?  This emotional response, while understandable, can blind interviewers to making smart hiring decisions.

As you go out and “hunt” for the best possible people to fill your vacancies, it’s critical to add background checks to your interviewing process.  They don’t have to take a long time, nor do they have to cost an arm and a leg.  They simply help protect you from bringing someone into the fold who doesn’t belong on your team.

There’s nothing wrong with wanting to have the best people on staff.  Just make sure you’re doing the legwork upfront — including background checks — to ensure safety and security of your company and customers.

    Getting something for free is always exciting, isn’t it?  But if you’re relying only on free background checks, you’re playing a game of roulette.

    Professional, comprehensive background checks that you invest in are worlds apart from those you can find freely online.  Though you might be able to uncover some information about potential employees if you surf the Internet for quite some time, you’re not going discover everything you need to know. 

    Some of the major advantages to paying for background checks include:

    • You won’t have to spend copious amounts of time hunting for incriminating info on the Internet.  (Trust us — you could spend hours and hours and still not have a solid report.  Isn’t your time worth the price of a background check you can trust?)
    • You will have a guarantee from a long-time, trusted background checking company like VerifyProtect.  And that means a heck of a lot.
    • You can customize the information that you need.  This gives you freedom, whereas if you do some online searches, you’ll get what you get… and it might not be what you want or require.
    • You don’t have to worry that you’ve missed something because it’ll all be available in front of you.

    Again, we’re all for saving money wherever possible.  But background checking isn’t a place to pinch pennies.
