Why Must Employers Use Background Verification

Recruitment Leave a comment

 

When you are looking for a new employee, you make sure the screening process is very good so that you find the best. While you busy with that, you may tend to forget to do background verification. People tend to feel that background check is same as reference check as both are before the screening process. Many resumes include inaccurate information most of which can be done with a good background check. If you are not really good with that, it can be taken care of by some of the background verification companies.

Employers go for background verification, not because the applicant is lying on their resume. The background check is done as a final step when they have decided to hire the applicant. The background check is either internally or they hire background check companies, to make sure you’re a top-quality candidate and they have not taken a wrong step. The check is done for several different reasons, sometimes it might be based on the company and it’s not always about cross checking the profile. Background verification becomes important because once the person is hired and later stages it is revealed that the qualifications are false, it reflects poorly on the employer.

Here is the list of some of the things take in consideration for background checks

  • Resume verification, to check if the applicant hasn’t lied about the qualification
  • Applicants credit check
  • Criminal records
  • Alcohol and drugs test

As applicant, you may feel that the background check may invasion privacy, don’t have to worry about it as the company doesn’t not have any authority to go in deep about your personal details. The government offers some protections in terms of what type of information employers can look at during a background check. Generally the company has to request and receive a permission letter from you before they start the check. Due to the reports in case the company decides not to hire you, they are required to inform you and give you a copy of the report.

 

 

 

How to Prepare for Your Next Interview

Hiring, Recruitment Leave a comment

Job interviews are scary, doesn’t matter you are a fresher or not. There is nothing to panic about it at all, staying clam will make you feel more comfortable and confident. Having the best resume and cover letter can get an interview request. It’s time to understand how to succeed in the job interview so that you are ever closer to your goal of obtaining one or more job offers. Interviews can be intimidating, and it isn’t always clear what employers are looking for. The more carefully you prepare, the better you will do.

One of the major mistakes made by the job seekers in order to impress is oversharing. Oversharing in an interview is the dangerous thing you can do. Sharing to much about you may create a poor impression and cut short the hiring manager’s time for further questions. It may also happen that out of nervousness you blabber endlessly about irrelevant information.

When you are asked to tell about yourself, never ever go for long stories. Always keep it short and simple, that is what preferred. Most important thing is your body language. If you never smile, have a limp handshake, and don’t make eye contact with the interviewer, can make the person feel you not interested. As long as you not interested, they aren’t interested in hiring you. Here appearing interested means that even though the job isn’t relevant to your profile, you ready to work for them anyways. Talking about your skills that they looking for, being confident and the way you communicate is a good way to impress. It’s important to know that you don’t have to answer every question asked, its okay not to answer when you not sure.

Better be prepared for everything, no one knows what might be asked. Knowing in and out about the company is also very essential. Only when you completely know about the company, you can have a clear idea of what they looking for. Listen carefully to what is being asked and make sure you have the exact answers, show them what you know. Also be ready with a list of few questions to ask. It is important to have at least one or two questions prepared in order to demonstrate your interest in the organization. Otherwise, you might come across as apathetic, which is a major turn off for hiring managers.

Perks to be used to boost up your Employees

Recruitment Leave a comment

 

Companies are learning how to offer great employee perks, as salary isn’t the only aspect an employee looks for anymore. Talking about providing perks to boast employees, the benefits and perks don’t have to be of high cost. Picking the right perk and implementing it is more important than the ones which are not beneficial. Most preferred benefits and perks by an employee at his/her workspace are

  1. Flexible scheduling: Every employee wishes to have flexible Working hours. Flexible scheduling is not just about reducing the working hours but also the work load. This can benefit the company to as the employee can focus on meeting deadlines and producing a good work.
  2. Casual dress code: This is easy to implement and does not cost company anything to offer. Allowing a casual dress code may help the employees to feel more comfortable at the work area.
  3. Work from home days: It generally can’t not be provided by all companies as the employees presence is required. But for companies where this is not a problem can implement it.
  4. Health benefits: Regular health checkups and providing healthcare insurance can be one of the major perk.
  5. Onsite gym or membership to a local gym:  If you’ve got the room for it, this is a fantastic way to keep your employees happy and motivated. A lot of great ideas are formed during pickup games.

Rather than just providing benefits and perks it’s important to know what the employee requirements are which can be done through feedbacks. It is said that no company can win over the long run without energized employees who believes in the mission and understand how to achieve it. Company perks and benefits can make all the difference for employees, especially creative or particularly valuable ones. It helps company’s community and the employees happen to show more of interest at work and making it successful.

The right personal development approaches can broaden skills as well as break people out of mental ruts. All of these things mean more engaged staff with broader skills and higher abilities to cope with day to day stress.
