Why Perform a background check?

 

Can you Trust the CV ?

 

It’s an accepted fact that a person would not submit a bad CV, but what are the most common lies ? Check here http://recruitmentdad.com/top-5-candidate-lies-2/

 

We see these repeated lies virtually every day, and the task is simply to get the truth from the fantasy.

 

Puffery might be accepted by many on a CV such as claiming to be the best secretary or mechanic or airline pilot, which is of course nonsense as there is no way to properly assess that and no-one really takes notice of such claims, but falsely saying you have credentials that others have worked hard to get is downright fraud.

 

Lying on a CV is not harmless, it’s a clear indication that the candidate cannot be trusted and how as an employer or candidate possibly hope to gain each others respect when the foundation is based on falsehoods. Further, our research shows that employers want real people, people with skills and integrity and not they a person who is willing to cheat and lie to get a job.

 

So if you are tempted to put on your CV:

  • I haven’t sent my CV to anyone else or got any other interviews lined up

  • A higher that actual current salary

  • Anything that begins “The reason I left that job” or “The reason I want to leave is..”

  • Dates of employment that are wrong or have gaps

  • I can’t think of anyone to refer to you

 

.... then you have just reached the TOP 5, but on the worst list!
