One poor hiring decision can cost you millions

When it comes to hiring new managers, directors, fiduciary professionals, and other high-level executives, one bad decision can break your company. An executive's character is paramount. Does your top candidate secretly run an adult website? A standard HR screening or database search won't tell you.

Battered reputations and costly settlements are not reserved for big, headline-making companies that can absorb such blows. Nearly 9 out 10 corporate frauds are high-level inside jobs (Forbes, June 2010). And in the wake of widely publicized scandals in both the public and private sectors, white collar crime at any level is less and less tolerated by society at large-and the judiciary in particular.

Protect yourself with thorough background checks

The best and easiest way to protect your employees and shareholders from the costs and stigma of corporate malfeasance is rigorous pre-employment background checks for key hires. Whatever your company's size, due diligence is your right and your duty.

Talent Check's executive background screening process goes well beyond standard HR screening and resume verification. We use the same investigative techniques as federal law enforcement and intelligence services-discreetly and in full compliance with federal and state laws. In addition to performing the verifications that you would expect, we scour the Internet and conduct extensive face-to-face interviews with everyone from old classmates to current business partners. The resulting reports are, of course, for your eyes only.

Trust us: If it's there, we'll find it

When you invest in a Talent Check screening, you can be confident that we'll uncover everything you need to know before you make an important hiring decision.

Our screening process is the sum of many years of investigative experience for public and private concerns, including the New York State Department of State and a major insurer. That experience includes not only intensive background checks but also investigation of high-end fraud and other wrongdoing. And we are of course experts on the Internet-an easy place to hide questionable activities or acquire phony documents.

And if we find nothing? Then you've just bought peace of mind.
