Best questions:
This will give you an insight into an applicant’s achievements, as well as how they arrived at their success. A good candidate will be proud of what they’ve accomplished, but also give credit to others, recognising that success at work is often a team effort. The answer to this question will tell you about how the candidate performed in their last role, what they consider to be an achievement and what is important to them at work. Past achievements can also be a good indicator of future successes, giving you a little glimpse of what they may accomplish in your company.
It all depends on how much breadth and depth is desired in a background check. Sterling Backcheck delivers the most robust, accurate criminal record background checks available. The cost will depend on the complexity of the screening. If you perform a large number of background checks regularly, integrating a Sterling Backcheck screening solution into your applicant tracking system or talent management system is likely the best, most cost-effective option.
Criminal record searches and identity cross-checks are the most common background checks, but solutions vary depending on industry and specific job requirement. For example, will the candidate handle cash transactions or manage cash assets? The typical background check is meant to verify if the applicant is truthful about their criminal record, education, and employment history.
That question is best answered by your legal counsel. Some aspects of a background check, such as reference interviews, can be done at any point in the recruiting process provided you have notified the candidate and obtained their consent to do the check. However, Sterling Backcheck recommends that any background check that may reveal sensitive information that is protected by privacy and human rights laws, such as a criminal record check, be done only once you have decided you wish to hire the candidate.
