CFPB Guidelines on Background Checks
Ensuring Fair Hiring: Understanding the CFPB’s Guidelines on Background Checks As an employer, you rely on background checks to make informed hiring decisions. However, recent guidelines issued by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) emphasize the importance of fair and accurate information in the hiring process.
Understanding Background Check Red Flags: An Introduction
What makes a job applicant the right fit for a given role? Employers need to identify individuals with the appropriate skills and experience combination. Otherwise, how can you build an efficient team that does quality work? Assessing candidates is about more than taking a resume or cover letter at face value. The hiring process is the best time to do a background check for red flags that might change your mind about a candidate.
Interpreting Background Checks for Employment
Using background checks for employment is a standard practice in many industries, but the process is more than simply ordering and reviewing a report. Background checks may relate expansive criminal history information in formats that the average person can’t always understand.
