Social Media Screening

Screen applicants for relevant information from social media, without compromising sensitive results pertaining to protected class.

Why screen social media?

The search involves a combination of technology and human expert analytics to correctly identify a candidate's online presence on any publicly available website, including social media, blogs, micro-blogs, photo sharing, online commerce, news and media and much more. Once a candidate's profile is identified, the content is reviewed and flagged for any workplace safety issues - racism/intolerance, violence, potentially illegal activity, or sexually explicit material.

A report is then created with examples of red flagged material with the redaction of any federal or state protected class information. The report provides insight into a candidate's online behavior and appropriateness as a candidate who is a fit for a company's basic code of conduct, values, or social media policy and limits risk of a negligent hire. All information provided on the report are actionable towards a hiring decision and consent is required before this report can be performed.
