With the increasing popularity of pre-employment checks, candidates are now aware that information they provide on their CV is likely to be verified at source.

Deceitful candidates may decide that it would be better for them to not disclose a period of negative employment on their CV, therefore assuming that employer will never be contacted.

BackCheck’s Gap Verification service aims to combat this issue by combining a variety of verification techniques to establish a timeline for the candidate, highlighting any prolonged gaps in their professional or academic history which may conceal an instance that your candidate would prefer you did not know anything about.
