The New Normal of Employment Verification for Human Resources
Employment Verification is one of the most important and fundamental parts of the hiring process. Many companies currently outsource their Employment Verification. It is unusual to expect the human resources department or even the prospective employees themselves to make many phone calls for the sake of Employment Verification. Not only is this extremely time consuming and potentially frustrating, but can cut into accuracy and quality which can inadvertently cut into the bottom line. In order to maintain quality assurance and keep productivity to a maximum, it only makes sense to outsource this process.
A company called VeraTrack, along with its unique proprietary system, hopes to take the fuss, and the countless phone calls, out of the numerous employment verifications completed daily by human resources employees. This system is super simple to use and it has the potential to be absolutely revolutionary to the companies and human resources employees who will use and ultimately benefit from it. The way this system works is by processing an application, and authorization from the applicant. After that, the act of Employment Verification becomes exceedingly easy by accessing this automated system. The hiring company simply logs in to their account (which can be created on VeraTrack’s website), and enters all the pertinent information. Such information ordinarily includes dates of hire and separation, last position held with the previous company, and salary information.
For a conservative monthly fee, some online companies will let you download and run your own background checks utilizing their software and forms. However, this still requires the use of valuable time for your Human Resources associates. Conducting employment verifications will still take time away from the managing of employee issues such as benefits, complaints, company policy preparation, and many other jobs preformed by your department. Outsourcing for the large corporation is really the only cost effective way to deal with the many applicants they will have to deal with. At conservative rates, there is no reason even the smallest company needs to do this menial task for themselves.
