TS you are from HR can ask you a few questions.
do you do reference check on candidates past work history.
do you also check on their academic qualifications and verify?
if a selected candidate lie about his job history period,
embellishing his resume by saying, he worked for a few years when
infact he only worked there for less than 1 year? what do you do
next?
Depends on what kind of position. If low level position then no
reference check.
Academic qualifications no but they must produce their certs and
transcripts.
I say if the person can get caught for the last point then he is
stupid in the first place. because every company will usually give
a cert letter when the person leaves. This letter will state when
the person join, when the person leave, his pay. My former
colleague once blacklisted this candidate. He told all his kaki
from the different recruit agencies about that guy.
