Background Screens

Many people often ask what, exactly, causes red flags when conducting a background screen?  The answer to that question can be varied, as it depends on what criteria the person conducting the search wants to find. Let’s dive in to the possibilities of what can trigger a red flag on a background screen.

Unfortunately, applicants misrepresenting themselves in an interview or falsifying a resume has become all too common practice. The most fool-proof way for employers to ensure that they are hiring qualified candidates that pose little to no risk to their company or organization is to perform regular background screens.
