A business is as solid as its employees, and the factor which drives the business continuity is the “TRUST” between the employer and the resource or the employee. It has to work both ways, employee needs to trust his seniors and management that they will recognize his work and abilities and will be available in times of need, and vice-versa, the employer places his trust to perform, rather outperform, the daily tasks assigned to the employee.
How does that start? Well, the answer is ‘At the time hiring’. That’s when the HR and resource talk and chat about the concerning stuff; could be experience, locations, expectations and many other perspectives, and what comes out of this whole phenomenon is a hiring decision. A ‘YES’ or a ‘NO’.
A ‘yes’ always comes with an unseen trust, which an organization has placed in the resource, but this trust is quite opaque, if not translucent, at this point in time, as it is based what is disclosed by the resource is his resume. But, what if the disclosures are already twisted and re-phrased to make them convincing. That would not only displace the trust but can lead to negative eruptions anytime during the tenure of the role.
A safeguard should always be put on place, to secure such abnormalities, and the best safeguard would be to verify the information and documents submitted by the candidate to prove his worth. This would ensure the Trust remains intact for both the parties, and any foul play is detected before it comes too large to handle.
Background verification does not only include the information submitted by the resource but also the information lying within. Anyone would agree that merely talking to someone for 30 minutes or just by looking at the Resume, no one can fully comprehend the qualities ad traits of a resource. Of course, the technical abilities can be judged by assessments but what about personal traits. Background verification starts the pre-healing process here. Not only, it verifies the information submitted but also digs out the hidden perspective of the resource.
ProTildo, a pioneer in Background Verification, ensures the same for the employers. As such, there are some set standard of Background Verification which we follow, but then we also go a few steps ahead and consume the unconventional approach to Background Verification. Talking to your family, friends and peers is a few of them.
ProTildo follows an approach which is driven by technology and multi-level AI based algorithms to provide the employers the power to create Trust. ProTildo prepares to Heal even before the accident has happened, by providing a protective layer of Verified information for the employers.
What we have also seen is that the small & mid-size companies tend to oversee the Background Verification process, as to them it seems lengthy and expensive. And to add, they don’t deem Background Verification to be necessary because of the nature of the business activities. That’s where they lay the foundation of getting hurt. No matter what the business activity is, there is always an exposure to risk. No business can sustain or grow without their customer’s trust, and create that internal trust, first they need to create is the ‘Internal Trust’. As said above, trust at the beginning is opaque, but a Background Verification of the resource makes it transparent.
It is always worth spending a negligible fraction of the annual CTC component for Background Verification as it would act as a Healer rather than creating a space to Hurt. ProTildo’s in-house Background Verification product is very well placed to understand the incremental professional competition. Resources tend to hide/misplace the information (a whopping 7 out to 10 cases) to show their worth, but in reality, they underperform when they go live, which leads to poor organizational synergies, low productivity and a cut in profitability. Such things are conceptual, and thus aren’t visible clearly in da-to-day business activities, but they do the effect the companies Balance sheet at the end, and by that time it’s too late to go back and heal. Companies should look to seek and provide ‘Trust’, as this is the only Healer and a protective layer to avoid business hurt, and ProTildo paves a smooth path to create that ‘TRUST’.
