BACKGROUND SCREENING

In particularly sensitive cases, circumstances might demand a more than a CV or qualification verification process. A fuller investigation can then be launched which would entail, but not limited to, the following steps:

-Full reference checking;

- Full previous employment referencing, with personal interviews where necessary;

- Discreet enquiries into the personal habits of the individual in question, to determine such things as expenditure, lifestyle habits and other issues which he or she might otherwise be unwilling to discuss with potential employers.

All of these details can be extremely helpful in determining the suitability of a candidate for a particular position.

In-job screening - where already employed persons are subjected to the same process - can also reveal details which may negatively affect that individual's performance.

The cost on undertaking such screening is minimal, particularly in relation to the potential damage the wrong person in a position of trust can do.
