I received many e-mails about this, so I thought I would give you a few hiring tips. Many candidates often leave out items on an application. Let them know they must fill out the entire application to be considered. There can be no gaps in employment, unless they can provide an explanation. Get at least five to seven years of employment history.
Job title and responsibilities, salary, and education credentials are areas where most lies are found. People also lie about criminal convictions. You can certainly verify the first two with references. Education and convictions can be verified with a background check. Have them prove their education with copies of degrees, certificates, and licenses. If they claim a place went out of business that they worked for, have them prove it with performance appraisals and pay stubs. When a candidate is a finalist, then do your background and reference checks.
