Employer's Background Checking Obligations
As most local employers know, hiring is hard right now. There are very few applicants and some of those who apply disappear during the hiring process by missing an interview or ghosting your emails and calls.
But don’t let the difficulty of filling an open position tempt you to skip important steps in the hiring process, particularly criminal background checks.
Knowing if your potential employee has a criminal background can prevent many problems down the road.
