What You Don’t Know About Your Employment Candidates

So you think you have a good reading on your new employment candidate? Maybe you do. And then again, maybe you had better think again. The other day a client of Corra found its prime candidate had twenty one Motor Vehicle Record Violations. Another employer found her candidate had no less than twenty two criminal record violations.

We at Corra see this all the time. While there are so many responsible and capable employment candidates out there, we find there are also quite a few who can cost your business, either in turnover and employment retraining or in potential litigation. To say nothing of the embarrassment to your company.

For a few bucks it is extremely cost effective to run background checks. At Corra we handle the larger companies but also the Mom and Pop operations.
