At Alaant, we pride ourselves on knowing how to vet job candidates. For our practice, vetting a candidate means:
- We meet with them on screen or in person and conduct a face-to-face interview with them.
- We spend time getting to know the candidates, we ask questions about their experience and we find out what their future career goals are so we can make informed recommendations that align with what our clients need to fill the role from both a skill set and culture fit.
- We conduct reference checks, we do professional skills assessment testing and we verify their education credentials.
- We perform a thorough pre-employment background check for any candidates selected for hire.
We do all of the above so we can confidently advocate for the candidate we are recommending while keeping the employer’s (our client’s) best interest top of mind.
For job seekers and employers alike, it’s important to make sure you are working with a reputable recruiter who performs due diligence, interviews candidates, and is an advocate for you and not just in it for the placement fee. Knowing how to vet potential employees is critical to making a happy marriage between an employer and employee. Knowing that your recruiting partner knows and believes in a thorough vetting process for job candidates makes your hiring that much easier.
We’d love the opportunity to be your recruitment partner, contact us.
