Social Media Check

Become more familiar with your candidates.

Since people frequently disclose information about themselves, a background check and screening on social media helps to humanise candidates and show that they are more than simply the facts on their CV. With GlobalCheckPro, learn more about your candidates and their potential.

Social Media Checks

Even after checking the candidate’s CV, work references, and other aspects of their identity or background, are you still unsure of whether they would be a safe recruit for your company and a suitable cultural fit?
Background checks on social media could be the solution. The media has covered social media background checks extensively, both favourably and unfavourably, but we think they may be very helpful when included as part of an extensive employment screening check.

What Social Media Check Actually means?

Background checks on social media are used to look for objective signs of harmful, illegal, or inappropriate behaviour as well as possible discriminatory attitudes from open internet sources. These results offer possible workplace behaviour and cultural fit data. With the use of technology, GlobalCheckPro’s social media background checks can help you safeguard your reputation and avert expensive mistakes by evaluating public online content within the confines of your HR policies and with personal information removed to limit liability.

When and Why Social Media Checks should be carried out?

We advise conducting background investigations on social media:
  • When selecting and recruiting potential applicants.
  • When appointing a current worker to a managerial or executive post
    ongoing monitoring to guard against risk or reputational harm.
  • When a company is being acquired or combined, employers should think twice before hiring staff.

Why check someone's background on social media?

Conducting social media background checks as part of a thorough hiring process has numerous advantages:

  • Obtain a special perspective on a candidate’s actions and demeanour that might not be obvious from a Resume or during an interview. Search the web quickly for pertinent information, taking into account any user-generated content in the public domain, as well as other social networking sites (such as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTube, etc.).
  • In order to protect you from any potential liability associated with knowing personal details, we will supply you with objective information with those details deleted.
  • Custom-made to meet your needs – background checks can be simply customised to fit your company’s standards, code of conduct, and employment regulations.
  • Verify the background of your candidates before hiring them to prevent your company and staff from working with unsuitable people. This reduces the risk to finances and people posed by hiring new staff.
  • By making sure you check all the boxes during the candidate screening process, you may satisfy your compliance obligations.
