Verification & Reference Services

Basic Employment Verification

The U.S. Department of Justice estimates that up to 45 percent of all resumes and applications contain fabrications. Typically, past employers disclose only the most basic employment information due to legal liability. Problem applicants are very aware of how the system works and are the most likely to falsify information and omit past employers. Within the current system, there is little ability to detect past employers who have been omitted from the employment application.

AmericanChecked has a 98 percent success rate reaching hard-to-reach references – double the industry standard. Our specialists work after hours, on weekends and holidays to get the job done efficiently, accurately and on time.

If agreeable with our client, our specialists make nine attempts over three days to make contact with the appropriate contact person, documenting all attempts and resulting report information. Per client request, we will go back to their applicant for any additional information required to complete the verification, taking them out of the role of middle-man in this process.

AmericanChecked verifies the applicant’s previous or current employment: start date, end date, title salary and rehire eligibility. International coverage is also available.
