Verifying employment history, establishing education levels, checking personal and professional references, and validating professional license credentials will provide you with the necessary confirmations to proceed with the prospective employee. You can be assured that the prospective employee has the experience, education and skills that they presented to you, in addition to being capable of performing the tasks for which they could be hired.
Employment History Verification
The most valuable skills that employees possess are those that are developed in their previous work experience. Verifying an applicant's reported employment history can confirm whether the applicant truly has the experience and abilities represented in his or her résumé. Proforma's Employment Verification service validates the career level and experience stated by applicants.
Intentional deception regarding job terminations or gaps in employment can be significant clues about ethical or work performance issues or even criminal history. Our experienced researchers can verify dates of employment, position, and salary (when available) reported on an application or résumé. Proforma can also conduct brief or detailed interviews with the appropriate personnel to enable a more thorough assessment of the applicant's work history.
Education Verification
For many positions, it is a prerequisite to have a certain level of related education. Degrees are often taken at face value by employers, but education information is commonly falsified on résumés and job applications. In some instances, your employees' lack of proper education and training can unwittingly expose you to negligence liability. Avoid deception and unknown liability by verifying that your candidate is qualified.
Proforma's Education Verification service confirms the institutions attended, the dates of attendance, and also the degrees earned ensuring that your job applicant brings the appropriate foundation of education and value to your organization.
Professional Credentials Verification
Professional credentials for licensed positions must be verified. Failing to do so creates a tremendous moral, professional, and legal liability. Proforma can verify professional credentials, the status of the applicant with the issuing authority, and verify dates of issuance and expiration. Don't put yourself in a position where your employee is not as qualified as he or she claims.
Personal Reference Check
A personal reference check is an essential tool that is too often overlooked. Utilizing this service is a great way to establish the personal character and professional demeanor of an applicant. Our experienced investigators can conduct customized interviews with up to 10 detailed questions designed to provide a well-rounded picture of who you are hiring.
