However, if you're truly concerned about ensuring a safe environment for both your employees and your customers, it's critical that the buyers of these services fully understand what they are buying, and what they are not.…; Added by Jason C.

Comment on: Blog Post 'Get Smart - Private Investigators make Great Sourcers': ted that they did come from a investigator background, and say they are doing well in the recruiting realm at least partly due to that background. @Francois, you seem to be capable of holding your own.
