• ASKHR SHOULD COMPANIES BLACKLIST CANDIDATE?

• AskHR is an initiative started by Applicant
  Tracking System, where we reach out to Talent
  Acquisition professionals and discuss with them
  about the most burning issues of recruitment
  world.
• 1. Candidates involved in negative code of
  conduct In most cases I would say no to
  blacklisting a candidate. But cases where it is
  appropriate could be violence against recruiter
  or other criminal activity
• 2. Blacklisting candidates can spoil their entire
  career Before jumping onto any conclusion,
  companies should analyze first if the situation
  really demands blacklisting a candidate. I highly
  recommend not to blacklist a candidate. This
  might result in their entire career.

• 3. Providing fake details Candidates furnishing
  fake details about past experience,
  Qualifications etc. Having past record of
  unprofessional conduct, breach of contract or
  even unethical or criminal offences.
• 4. Need to understand Candidates requirements
  As per the pain that causes to find one candidate
  for the right post and then they dont turn up or
  do not follow the briefing before the interview,
  you feel like blacklisting them.
• 5. Hiding important Information Blacklisting of
  a candidate is a very harsh and extreme step
  taken by a company. It should be used only in the
  worst case scenario. Once such case could be
  Hiding important information.
