1. Employment Screening and In-house vs Outsource
Options

• A wrong professional hired could damage the brand
  reputation, cause legal issues and lowers
  employee morale.
• There is too much at stake to perform the
  employee screening duties in-house. Companies
  have become aware of the benefits of hiring
  outside service providers to help secure the
  reputation and fill vacant positions.

• Do companies have enough resources and technical
  knowledge to run employment screening in-house?
• Is outsourcing the best option? The management
  teams should chalk out a plan and prepare a list
  of things if they're looking to the screening
  part in-house.
• The process involves legal challenges. The team

  laws and rules to which information they're

  to do their jobs rightly considering lack of
  knowledge and experience.
• They're susceptible to making mistakes which
  could prove to be costly in the future. The
  in-house screen option doesn't serve the purpose.

  in-house. It doesn't tick a single box. There is
  unseeable damage too.
• A wrong professional can contaminate the company
  culture. It could expose the frailties among
  people.
• Selecting the right screening agency is of utmost
  importance. You cannot expect to find the right
  team without studying the market or analysing the
  performance of different agencies.

• Your company's reputation is on the line. The
  legal aspects of the screening process make it a
  tough job.
• You need to look for an experienced, established
  and industry-best agency.
• The work includes credit checks, education
  status, employment history, behavioural approach,
  skill assessment, criminal records, immigration
  status, following international laws etc.
