EMPLOYMENT VERIFICATION SEARCH
When was the last time you checked a candidate’s past employment experience personally? Do you typically call the employer or confirm with the business, or do you assume what you read on a resume is true? If your answer to either of these questions is yes, you should know you may be significantly jeopardizing your success. To avoid doing so, it’s important to include an Employment Verification Check in your screening process.
An Employment Verification Check is critical because it provides recruiters with the information they need to better understand a candidate’s experience. From the entry-level line cook to the highest executives in business, most positions demand experience if businesses wish to succeed. But employment records are notoriously difficult to confirm; all a candidate has to do is claim the business no longer exists or give a friend’s telephone number to convince you. In most situations, it is virtually impossible to detect the truth without help.
At IMI Data Search, we eliminate pain points like these by making verification of histories and references quick, simple, and easy. Our point-to-point online platform lets you file, review, and receive screening reports from anywhere with Internet access. It’s a simple way to achieve peace of mind and ensure that you find the right people every time.

Why You need an Employment Verification Check
As technology makes fraud easier and more difficult to detect, the rate at which businesses identify resume fraud is rising. Up to 80 percent of all employees now admit to making up information or inflating claims on resumes in an attempt to get work at least once. As fraud continues to rise, so does the importance of conducting Employment Verification. It’s virtually impossible to detect these lies just by personal review or web search alone. Because of this, a reliable partnership with expert screening services is a must for modern business.
Past employment fraud is one of the most common sources of falsified information found on resumes. Employees need only claim the business they worked at is no longer in existence to make it impossible for employers to verify facts. Our Employment Verification Check reviews past work history and determines whether an applicant truthfully worked at a business no longer in service.
Business references aren’t reliable, either; a friend with a disposable smartphone can masquerade as a business owner and the employer would simply never know. Counterfeit employment records and pay stubs make this situation even more difficult to overcome. Often, businesses are left with little more than their own intuition when attempting to make decisions about how to proceed. Because of the high risk of resume fraud, an Employment Verification Check is a must for all companies.
Total falsification isn’t your only concern. A candidate may be truthful, but include false employment specifics rather than fabricating employment itself. Your prospective applicant may truthfully report working at a business, yet lie about how long they worked there. Or, they may change their job title to better represent themselves at face value.
