Multi-layer employment screening
We contact former employers directly to confirm the exact start and end dates of each position listed by the candidate, flagging any timeline discrepancies before they become a hiring problem.
We verify the job titles and responsibilities the candidate has claimed against what their former employers actually confirm, surfacing any inflated or misrepresented roles.
Where available and permissible by law, we gather information on the candidate's reason for separation, providing additional context to support your hiring decision.
Whether a candidate's work history is within the United States or spans multiple countries, our team verifies employment records across borders with the same level of thoroughness.
We take the burden of employment verification off your team entirely. Our automated workflows handle employer outreach directly, ensuring every verification attempt is thorough and complete — no follow-up required from your side.
3rd Degree caught a candidate who had inflated their job title by two levels. Their employment verification saved us from a very costly mistake before the offer was even extended.
