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.
Do You Google Your Applicants?
The internet has become a wonderful tool in many different ways. We can find out pretty much anything we want to know from anywhere around the world. Want to know what the weather is currently like where you are going on vacation? Internet it. Want to know what type of vehicle has the best safety features? Internet the question. Want to know if your job applicant has a MySpace page? How easy can it be to check. While the checking may be very easy, what are you going to do with it once you have the information? Can it be used in a hiring decision? Can I Google someone and find out information and use that for a hiring decision?
If you ask a reputable screening agency, the first thing they should tell you is to consult your legal department. This is a decision that your company has to decide for themselves. However, there are some things that an employer needs to be aware of when doing these searches. If you Google someone and find out that they were arrested half way across the United States and you found the arrest records or even a newspaper article about it – that is not a conviction. Records are unsubstantiated. You don’t know if there was a conviction or if the case even went to court. If you find out that your candidate prefers an alternative life style, of what use is that information to you and would it affect the job that they would be doing for the company?
Recent surveys show that approximately 25% of hiring managers use internet search engines to research potential employees, according to an online survey released by CareerBuilder and 12% do searches on social networking sites such as MySpace or Face Book. Of those hiring managers, 63% have indicated they did not hire a person based on what they found. A question that should come up is – on MySpace or Face Book, who put in the information? Was it our candidate or was it someone who is considered a peer? Is it fact or fiction?

A fire chief, a state representative and a top hospital administrator. All three of these positions are positions of authority and positions of trust to the general public. When headlines like this are made it provides both negative publicity to the organization and a feeling of concern and/or distrust by the general public for that organization. The negative publicity could have been avoided had the organizations done an employment screening check on the individual prior to their being placed in the position of trust.
Many organizations and companies feel that to do the background check may be too expensive or too time consuming. However, the negative publicity that is generated is far more damaging and expensive than the cost of the background check. Most of the reputable screening agencies would have been able to tell an employer or organization that the education documents presented were from questionable institutions or from institutions that are not recognized by one of the post-secondary accrediting agencies recognized in the United States.
BackTracking through a candidate's resume or application can save an organization from embarrassment and potential litigation. Compared to the couple of dollars spent for a background check, each organization has to decide their priorities.
