FAQs

Employment verification confirms the employment history in a candidate’s résumé or job application. It involves confirming the dates of employment for each employer listed and verifying the positions held as listed by the candidate, allowing you to validate the candidate’s claims about their past roles and responsibilities. Our extensive in-house language capabilities mean we can conduct English, French, Spanish and Portuguese checks.

In Canada, the United States, and Australia, employers can confirm a candidate’s dates of employment and the job titles or positions held. In the United Kingdom, employers can confirm the dates of employment and the job titles or positions held, plus details of any disqualifications in a Directorship Check.

All that’s needed is the candidate’s name and email or phone number to start the verification. Candidates will be asked to supply employment details, and potentially, proof of employment.

The process for the candidate is simple. Here’s how it works:

  1. Send your checks to the candidate via email or phone number.
  2. Your candidate completes their background check online.
  3. While the verification check is in progress, the verification team will reach out to collect employment documentation as needed.

That’s it! Once the candidate submits their background check and documentation, the status will be updated in the Certn dashboard.

Turnaround times depend on the responsiveness of the sources, but Certn’s in-house Verifications team initiates the process within one business day. Employment verification is different from a reference check.

Turnaround times vary by country.
