My name is Lisa Sprowls and I am a Filtration Recruiter. I work on many sales/ engineering/executive/ and management level positions serving the search and recruitment needs of both large and small manufacturers and distributors in the Filtration/Water & Wastewater/ Separations/and Environmental Industries.
With each and every finalist candidate that we present to our clients, we also provide a complete background check. Our background checks are provided by our parent company, BackTrack Inc., www.backtracker.com. All reports provided include employment verification, education verification, social security trace report, motor vehicle report, reference checking and criminal records searches.
To Contact Current or Not?
If a candidate is “reaching”, “tuning” or “shading” their resume, they will frequently tell you not to contact a current employer. Candidates are advised that this makes them appear more valuable within an organization. They are advised to check a “no” box even if they are not currently employed. The theory behind this is that a candidate who is currently employed is a more desirable prospect than one who is unemployed. A candidate may also say “no” to contacting a current employer especially if they list that they are currently working for a major competitor. The hiring companies love to “steal” current employees from another firm or competitor. Because they checked no to calling that current employer, you as a hiring manager or HR service person may never check to see if that person ever did work with that company. A hiring company rarely will follow up on a job candidates’ application or resume once that person has been hired with their company. It is recommended that if you hire someone who indicated “no” on a job application to contacting current, that this employer be called once an offer has been made to the candidate or the candidate starts working with your company. If you had your candidate fill out a job application, and later you find that the candidate never did work for that current employer that was listed, you will be able to take action based on the falsification of the application that was submitted to you. It is always a good idea to follow up on current employment verification once an offer has been made or a candidate starts with your company.

Filtration, Water Treatment, Waste Water Industry Recruiter
My name is Lisa Sprowls and I am a Filtration Recruiter. I work on many sales/ engineering/executive/ and management level positions serving the search and recruitment needs of both large and small manufacturers and distributors in the Filtration/Water & Wastewater/ Separations/and Environmental Industries.
With each and every finalist candidate that we present to our clients, we also provide a complete background check. Our background checks are provided by our parent company, BackTrack Inc., www.backtracker.com. All reports provided include employment verification, education verification, social security trace report, motor vehicle report, reference checking and criminal records searches.
Today, more than any other time in our industry, more and more employers are requesting completed background checks prior to extending an offer to a potential candidate. With this in mind, it is very important that you, the candidate, provide a very clear and honest picture of your background to a potential new employer.
As with many situations, preparation is the key to success. The job market is very competitive and you probably will not be the only qualified candidate for a position. The deciding factor may simply be your background check. One minor exaggeration are dates of employment or degree, may remove you from the running. As a Filtration Recruiter, I have seen candidates not be considered for positions by what has been verified or not verified on their background check.
Do you do background checks?
A lot of corporations indicate that they perform mandatory employment reference checks on every single applicant. But do they? Are background checks being skipped or only partially completed? In today’s environment you as the hiring manager or human resource person in charge of hiring are rushed and hurried. There simply isn't enough time in the day to do everything you need to do, as well as to make repeated calls to past employers/supervisors or get reference questions in the mail to references. Do you have a work environment where if there is a mistake made on a check you will be held responsible? Or, are you a hiring manager or HR contact who goes by “gut feel” and knows that you are a great judge of character and can pick the best candidate out of a crowd of potential employees? Job candidates who have a tendency to pad or fluff their resumes love to find out that a thorough background check isn’t being done. You may hire this candidate, he works out for the first couple of months and then starts recommending some of his buddies and friends when he hears of additional job openings in your organization. This could certainly be a recipe for disaster!
