Q: Do background checks using credit
reports improve the hiring success for increased security?
A: With making hire decisions, just as with any other business
decision more information is best, it usually comes down to how much
information can be accumulated and digested in a timely manner to
impact the decision. Clearly having credit checks as well as other
background checks does add to the information which can be weighed
in order to hire the best candidate. Initial information is obtained
just by witnessing the behavior and demeanor of the candidate.
Background and credit checks are necessary to fill those positions
that will have a direct connection to sensitive and confidential
organizational systems. To fill this type of position without the
due diligence is negligence. Without the careful scrutiny of
potential new hires, this can lead to the downfall of the business
or at best an organization that underperforms. In professional
sports, teams try to sign the best players in order to compete. A
business organization is really no different, in that, they also
need the best players to successfully compete in the business
marketplace. The more information a hiring manager can obtain on a
potential candidate the more often the decision to hire the right
candidate will be made.
Q: Do credit checks add real value in determining the best candidate?
A: The trained hiring manager will have a solid understanding of how
an applicants’ material interrelate and that a balanced evaluation
is possible if the guidelines and procedures are clearly defined and
observed. Will hiring mistakes happen? The answer of course is yes,
but it is possible to have more successes than failures.
