"In the fourth quarter of 2006 Mancini Group found a double digit increase in Employment and Education Verifications" stated Simpson, President of the Mancini Group. As more small and mid-size companies use background checks the increase in our business has been in this area due to more falsification on resumes. We are digging more and finding more information on prospective employees including previous salaries, dates of employment, job titles and job descriptions. In the education areas we are finding more falsified information on graduation dates, majors, minors and specialty education.

More small and mid-size companies are asking for a more detailed background checks at the end of 2006. The growth will continue in 2007. As the background information era expands in 2007, we expect an increase in Workers Compensation, 10 panel drug screening, and social security traces. Most of our clients we recommend starting with a social security trace, federal background check, employment, education and workers compensation searches. At one time only large corporations sought that type of information and now it has come full circle. Human Resource departments want the most information on prospective employees.

The Top five resume lies include:

1) Phony Graduation certificates and diplomas

2) False Reasons for leaving a job

3) Falsified information about responsibilities and job duties

4) False Salary History

5) Incorrect dates of former employment

The smaller companies can no longer afford to make the wrong choice on a candidate as the unemployment rate remains low. Loss of revenue due to training costs also makes choosing the right candidate important. So now that 2007 is upon us, we expect more companies taking advantage of outsourcing background check information.
