Employment Verification Services
Is your applicant justified in demanding that high salary? Does your applicant really have the years of supervisory experience you require? Is your applicant covering up a period of unemployment?
One of the most common ways applicants deceive prospective employers is by stretching the truth regarding their past employment history, including salary earned, time of service, and job titles. Because of this, employment verifications have grown to become a staple in the hiring process for a large number of companies. When you verify applicant employment claims you are able to make better, more informed hiring decisions.
Description of Service:
Our basic employment verification service provides a confirmation from the applicant’s employer of start date, end date, title, salary and eligibility for rehire. Most verifications are completed by phone but some must be handled by mail. Either way, our experts get the job done right, fast.
For a more detailed employment verification, we also offer employee reference screening and employment supervisor interviews.
Proforma’s Unique Signature Capture Technology:
Due to increasing fear of litigation and privacy concerns, some employers require a signed release from the applicant before they will provide any or certain types of employment information. At Proforma, we have a unique signature capture technology that captures your applicant’s signature via a web-based mouse-enabled consent form. The applicant actually signs the consent form using a computer mouse and the system captures the written signature. In contrast to a standard check-box electronic signature, the signature we capture can then be used to satisfy the “wet” signature requirements of such employers.
Best Practices of Employment Verification Services:
Bear in mind that some employers will only confirm or deny data provided to them and nothing else. Therefore, it is important to gather as much information as possible about your applicant’s employment history in order to get the verification data you seek. Dates employed, phone numbers, exact company name and address, applicant’s name at time of employment, and other relevant information will greatly improve the usefulness and accuracy of the verification response.
Limitations of Employment Verification Services:
The main limitation of verifying applicant employment claims is the amount of information an employer is willing to provide. Certain employers have policies that prevent the release of information such as salary or eligibility for rehire. Others have policies that only allow confirmation of information provided by the applicant -- these companies will only say if the information provided agrees with their records or not.
