Screening for the One:

How to Gain an edge in your Hiring

 

Screening for the One Book Cover

Putting effort into the hiring process ensures you will find suitable candidates and retain them. The old saying, “hire slowly, fire quickly” should be applied during the hiring process. Take the time and conduct the proper due diligence to ensure that you are hiring who you think you are hiring. 

As the first to establish ourselves in Canada’s background checking industry, in 1974, Britton Management Profiles (BMP) has been directly and indirectly setting standards and building frameworks. I, as the company’s president and CEO, have found myself in a kind of ambassadorial position for the industry.

Screening For The One: How to Gain An Edge In Your Hiring is one of the most important books for success in staffing your company that you can have in your human resources toolkit. Written by an expert whose business has five decades’ worth of experience in conducting background checks, it gives you all the information you need for recruiting talent who will be an asset to your company.

Hiring employees goes beyond just looking at their qualifications and resumes, and asking those run-of-the-mill job interview questions about their strengths and weaknesses. In today’s highly competitive job market, it’s not unusual for job candidates to leave out information, exaggerate or to outright lie in their job applications. In our globalized world, where you might employ people from other countries, it’s become even more complicated to be able to tell that those you hire are who they say they are. Doing a thorough background check before signing that employment contract has become a must for every employer, big or small.

With Screening For The One: How to Gain An Edge In Your Hiring, you can learn what to look for to find the perfect candidate for the position, for your company and for your workplace culture. This book not only explains why you might need different background checks, but also gives you practical tips on how to conduct each within the framework of privacy laws and workers’ rights. It’s the workplace investigations book every human resources manager needs on their bookshelf.
