Employment and Education Verification Services

How do you know an employee is really qualified for the job?

Employment and education verification services are necessary to legitimize an employee’s qualifications. It is common for an applicant to fabricate and embellish upon their pre-employment background, educational information and professional certifications, under the assumption that a potential employer will not conduct any pre-employment verifications. However, employment eligibility verification is standard practice for employers interested in hiring reliable staff and preventing fraud. 

How is employee eligibility verified?

Pre-employment verification companies, such as Clarifacts, offer employment and education verification services to check an employee’s qualifications.

• Employment verification is done by checking present and/or previous employment history; specifically, dates of employment, positions held, pay rate, reason for terminating employment and eligibility for re-hire (where available). The level of information obtained through a pre-employment verification report is subject to each employer’s policy.
• Education verification services uncover an applicant's educational history including dates of attendance, major course of study, diploma/degree received and date awarded. Education verification services include GEDs, high school diplomas and college degrees.
• Professional license/certification verification is conducted for all positions in which a particular license or certificate is required for employment (i.e. accountant, doctor, nurse, teacher, etc.). Pre-employment verification services validate an applicant's professional license/certification including the issue date, current status and disciplinary actions or restrictions, if any.

Persistence = Quality Information

The quality and depth of information accumulated during a verification or reference interview is directly related to the individual conducting the calls. That is why our personnel at Clarifacts take the approach based on persistence and follow through which allows us to reveal information that is invaluable to your hiring process.
