Why is It So Important to Verify My Applicants’ Credentials?

Any time you’re hiring for a position that requires a licensed employee, you must take the appropriate steps to verify that the applicant actually has that license. A failure to do so could result in your organization being subject to negligent hiring lawsuits and penalties.

There are some companies and organizations that simply scroll through databases to try to find the applicant’s name and license, but in many cases, these databases are not regularly updated, which is why working with a team of professionals to handle the credential verification is so important. Proper credential validation allows you to:

  • Make more informed, higher quality hiring decisions on behalf of your company or organization.
  • Ensure the candidate you’ve chosen actually does have the license they say they do, and that the license in question is in good standing.

  • Get all the information you need about the applicant’s license, which could include licensure in fields such as technology, healthcare, safety, energy & security.

  • Cut down on the amount of time it takes to hire a new employee, which helps you to reduce administrative costs & overload.

Frequently Asked Questions

Here are a few of some of the questions we most commonly get asked about license verification:

What happens if discrepancies show up in the license verification?2019-07-16T14:09:35-05:00

Discrepancies do show up from time to time (that’s why it’s so important for you to go through the verification process), but a discrepancy does not automatically mean the applicant is lying about their license—there could simply be some mistakes in the record. This is why it’s so important to work in actually contacting the institution directly as part of the verification process—it’s the only way to truly be sure that the license exists and is in good standing. Additional searches and following up with the candidate can also be used as part of the process.

What is involved in the credentialing process?2019-07-16T14:09:04-05:00

As mentioned previously, checking the validity of a person’s credentials involves more than just combing through databases and hoping the information contained in them is accurate. A thorough license verification process must include actually contacting the issuing agency, licensing board or institution directly to confirm that the applicant both has the license they claim to have and that the license is in good standing.

What is meant by professional license verification?2019-07-16T14:08:13-05:00

Just because a person claims to have a professional license on a resume does not mean they’re telling the truth about it. Many jobs require professional licenses as a prerequisite for hiring, so it’s important to verify that a person who claims to have a professional license actually does.
The results of a license verification include confirmation of the type of license, the license’s status, a certificate or designation number associated with the license, information about when the license expires (and its date of issuance) and whether there have been any disciplinary actions taken against the license holder, including suspensions or revocations.
