Since most jobs require a minimum level of education, education verification should be an important part of any company’s background screening process. Typically looking for education degrees, institutions attended, years attended, specific certifications and specialized training, verifying education can help small business hiring managers protect against negligent hiring claims, ensure an applicant has the required certifications and uncover falsification of credentials and/or degrees. Although there is no time limit to which the educational background can span, the education verification process can take weeks and turn up inaccuracies and incomplete results, so it is important to work with a reputable company, such as ShareAble.
