It is a fact that employees lie on their resume to get hired for their favorite positions. And in some cases, HR managers end up hiring a totally wrong candidate leading to performance, security, and compliance issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Organizations and their customers have now become more sensitive towards data security and compliance. As a result, now more than ever, businesses need to have an adequately qualified and reliable pool of employees. How do they hire the right candidate? You would say, by verifying the background of employees. Yes, organizations do deploy traditional employee background check practices to cross-check multiple credentials including educational certificates, work experience, residence location, and criminal record among others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But, is the process fool-proof? The answer is no! Traditional verification method has its own flaws and is full of human errors. In a normal verification, a candidate can easily hide the wrong information. The situation is grim because just in the USA, more than 60 percent of candidates lie on their resumes to secure a job. Why is the number so huge? Because 48 percent HR professionals fail to validate the credentials due to lack of time or resource constraints.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The only solution to this widespread problem is Blockchain. It can make the employee background verification<\/strong> process faster, swifter, accessible, and reliable for everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Blockchain Ensured Certificate<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When you save your normal educational or professional certificate in a public Blockchain framework; it would be called a Blockchain ensured certificate. Once the certificate is uploaded in the system, an OTP is generated to ensure its genuinity. After the successful validation, the certificate is automatically transferred to the blockchain. And once it enters the Blockchain framework, it stays available online 24\/7 and tamper proof.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can access the certificate at point in time by just requesting the Blockchain entry. After you make the request, a digital certificate is sent via mail to the person along with credentials and transaction information. It is that simple!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Public Blockchain is used?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Public Blockchain is leveraged to ensure users have absolute control of the transaction history. It means you can use the decentralized data structure to directly exchange the information. It helps in preventing manipulation as the information is signed up through a cryptographic system. Most importantly, data theft is not possible in a decentralized structure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are some other pros of having a public blockchain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
