Measures for “compete for talents” - Comprehensive Background Check
After the epidemic, companies are gradually recruiting more manpower to support their recovering business. However, when hiring management executives or positions that require specific academic and technical skills, there are some precautions in hiring the right candidate and avoid those who may pose a risk. 
With the common approach of interview and referencecheck, you can obtain general information about the candidates for the assessment of their skills and knowledge. However, you can miss out on important red flags such as unlawful conducts which can be uncovered with simple litigation, criminal conviction, and sexual offense record search. Additionally, a screening of the candidates’ social media activities and contents may shed light on any association to questionable actions and speech, including hateful comments, aggressive conduct, distribution of explicit and sensitive information. False information can be eliminated through a comprehensive background check to save you from hiring any disreputable individuals.
