KRESS Employment Screening Announces Webinar on Background Screening

Background check provider announces event for HR professionals

HOUSTON, Texas—October 31, 2007—KRESS Employment Screening, a licensed investigations company (TX-A06712) that provides employers with background checks, today announced their newest webinar, "Turning Background Checks into Solutions for the Future: Standard Thinking No Longer Applies." The webinar will be hosted by CEO Jeff Rackler.

Background screening is all too often relegated to the end of the hiring process and more of an afterthought than a measurable process with goals and best practices. Because of the inattention often paid to the process—from the choice of background screening provider to the screens delivered to the reporting on inconsistencies—more companies are receiving a minimal return on investment.

Those HR professionals who understand the background screening process can quickly see through inflated promises and inadequate performance by sub-par providers to find the best fit for their firm. The "best fit" is a screening partner who goes beyond best practices to help determine the right type of background check to get the type of employees that will build a better organization from within.

"Turning Background Checks into Solutions for the Future: Standard Thinking No Longer Applies" will address this issue and others, including:

  • An analysis of background checks in the marketplace today
  • The recent impetus for changes in screening best practices
  • The potential impact of background checks on your company
  • How to maximize the effectiveness of the background check program
