With the emergence of online degrees and the current competition in the job marketplace bogus resumes are on the rise. Bogus diplomas can lead to bogus hires and unqualified employees that most likely won’t work out well. Verifying job applicant resumes is critical in current hiring conditions. Companies like CriminalBackgroundRecords.com not only perform criminal background checks but also offer professional verifications including education verification for its employment screening clients. Education verification will give Human Resources the information they want such as did this candidate actually get this degree or in the medical field does this candidate have the required credentials etc… Educational history is very important to a lot of companies looking to hire and even essential for those positions needing the required educational degree, certificate or credentials.
Not verifying the information a job applicant is providing you may lead to a bad hire and cost your company a lot more than the small fee charged for running education verifications prior to hiring.
