Background Check – Hiring Help – HR Case Study

Location: Texas, USA

While partnering with CYB, a client became aware that an employee who applied for a financial role at her company had been found guilty of embezzlement at her previous company. There are requirements when it comes to running background checks.

A background check is a process a person or company uses to verify that an individual is who they claim to be, and this provides an opportunity to check and confirm the validity of someone’s criminal record, education, employment history, and other activities from their past.

Before working with CYB’s HR Experts, the client had not run background screens on candidates. However, while working through the creation of her hiring process with CYB, the client began to properly background checked her candidates. The position that she was hiring for was the company’s Controller. This client had already dealt previously with theft at another location and understood the potential damage that one bad hire could have on her company’s culture and reputation.

Through the new hire process that CYB put into place, this situation was avoided and the wrong employee was not put into the open role. Utilizing CYB’s HR Experts and the Hiring Employee – Background Check process, CYB was able to support this company.

Estimated Savings due to partnering with the HR Experts at CYB Human Resources: The company avoided potential embezzlement that could have resulted from this individual having been placed in this position.
