There are many issues that companies endure during the background check, onboarding, and staff vetting process.
We noticed the problems tend to stem down to relying on manual processes, which leaves companies exposed to time consuming tasks, errors, and difficulty managing data.
We look at 5 common problems that organisations come by, and how our system, Employment Check Pro, solves them.
1) Application Process
Many companies still rely on spreadsheets and basic application forms (created on paper, word, or PDF) to process applications and data.
Oftentimes, the process lacks a user-friendly interface, for both the candidate and the administrator.
This not only makes it trickier to process applications effectively, but impairs the overall candidate experience. And the result? Applications lost in the process, and top candidates deciding not to proceed with an application.
Our system provides you with a user-friendly interface that, not only accepts data and documents with ease, but processes the data to proceed with applications.

2) Vetting Process
Arguably one of the most important aspects of the recruitment process, many companies have a very basic vetting procedure. The issue is that if this process is exposed to errors, then your company instantly falls into a state of non-compliance.
And non-compliance can lead to poor hiring decisions, fines, and reputational (as well as legal) damage.
In addition, basic vetting procedures can cost companies a lot of time (and money).
Our system ensures that your vetting procedure is efficient, whilst maintaining compliance to the highest level.

3) DBS and Other Checks
Performing DBS checks (as well as other background checks) has proved to be one of the most time-consuming aspects of the recruitment process.
The process for many companies usually involves multiple, smaller processes (which requires numerous suppliers and platforms). The result is difficulty managing the process, which can lead to you hiring people who have not had the sufficient background checks required by your industry.
The aim of our system is to eliminate the need for numerous platforms and suppliers, giving you more control of the process; thus, maintaining compliance and working within the employment regulations set out by your sector.

4) Reporting
Many HR executives and administrative executives need to provide cohesive and concise reports to management, sometimes on a regular basis. The main issue here is that data from multiple systems must be obtained, which can take a lot of time.
Our system allows you to produce reports efficiently, which incorporates the data set out by the user.

5) Staff Management
If you manage a team who are handling the background check process, then your priority is ensuring they work efficiently (and compliantly), with the tools they need.
Our system allows you to set up KPIs, and track the progress of projects.
In addition, reports can be generated in seconds.
