Recruiter Solutions International - Why Do You Need My Date of Birth?

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.

Why Do You Need My Date of Birth?
Many employers feel that requesting a date of birth from an applicant or candidate can be a particularly touchy situation. If you get it and don’t hire someone, are you in violation of any EEOC laws? Can you be charged with age discrimination by this candidate? Why do you even need the date of birth?

There are several reasons that a date of birth is required for background screening. Criminal courts do not file records by social security number. The identifiers on a court index are the full name and the date of birth. If you are trying to verify a high school diploma, the high school will have records by full name attended under and date of birth. Many colleges are now redacting social security numbers on records and going back to name and date of birth for identifiers.

Even with this information, some employers are still uncomfortable with the idea of requesting a date of birth from their candidates. If you are in this situation, talk with your background screening company. Many have hotlines set up that an applicant can call in on an 800 number and leave the information with the background screener. The employer need never has access to the date of birth until a job offer has been made.

Recruiter Solutions International - Diploma Mills or Degree Mills

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.

Diploma Mills or Degree Mills
Wikipedia describes a diploma mill or degree mill as “an organization that awards academic degrees and diplomas with substandard or no academic study, and without recognition by official accrediting bodies. These degrees are often awarded based on life experience”. Many of these diploma mills will also have it set up where you can call in to the “school” and receive the verification from the school.

A solid reputable background screening company will generally be able to tell you that a school diploma presented by your applicant is one that has come from a recognized agency or comes from a school that is not nationally recognized. In today’s society, the emphasis for the worker is to be better educated than those who may be competing for the same job. Many people either don’t have the time or the funds to invest in the degree process and find that doing the diploma mill degree is a better option for them. There are estimates that up to 40% of today’s job candidates are untruthful on their resume about their education.
