Hi Guys,

I recently came across this news on TV channel that now most of the MNC's, corporates have started Candidate verification OR background verification from sites like myspace, orkut n othere related webs.

Most of the companies have outsourced this 'noble cause' to agencies who are expert in finding out the candidates on this sites and doing the background check as well as "character check".

Can somebody comment on this? Is it really happening with your company?

Cheers!

hey jashan,

this is a topic that I have been blogging about for a few weeks now over at http://orlandojobspot.blogspot.com. there has even been a poll on http://www.ere.net where recruiters can say if they use this practice. its growing to be kinda scary but if you know employers are looking at these things it is our responsibility as job seekers to clean up our pages. have a good one!
