THANK YOU FOR SUBSCRIBING
The interview room was surprisingly pleasant than the monotonous atmosphere normally observed. The confident, assuring, and a seemingly credible candidate who sat before him amazed the manager. Although he could not verify the candidate’s credentials in real-time, the optimistic answers and responses provided by the candidate cleared the doubts hovering in his mind, urging him to consider the candidate without having to sink deeper into the customary background check of the candidate. Two weeks later, the company observes that the candidate is short-tempered and prone to passive-aggressive temperament. Moreover, the candidate had faked his previous employment tenure and credentials. Time and again, hires from across multiple levels including leaders and C-suite have been found to misrepresent information to employers during hiring. In India, resume lies increased to 15 percent in 2017; an increase of 48 percent compared to the previous year.
Such misjudgments, without any form of real-time verification, often cost organizations loss of time and resources while recruiting employees/partner and vendors for various jobs. “Identity, profile, and reputation are the principal criteria sought by organizations while recruiting the right candidate, and to achieve that, transparency at both ends—the candidate’s and the organization’s—is highly essential for a fruitful tenure,” says Ajay Trehan, Founder and CEO of AuthBridge. With the growth of on-demand services and increased digital interactions, it is essential to be able to ‘trust’ the other party in real-time through real-time verifications.
