Many of you who know me personally have heard many of my calls for getting to know your vendor.
Why? Because it still surprises me that many a pre-employment screening will order searches from a vendor (records retriever) without knowing how searches are done at that jurisdiction or what the re3cord retriever is retrieving!
That’s why.
A case in point:
My friend, Les, called me to say there are new international record retrievers advertising.
I looked at their ads or WebSites and almost believed they (the new international record retrievers) knew what they were doing. I was almost that stupid.
There is no law stopping companies from advertising international searches (or any kind of search), but there should be.
I know that Straightline International, maybe we don’t have the most beautiful Web Site, but we do spend hundreds of thousands of US dollars to go to the courts and police authorities around the world.
No one else does that.
Look into it, that’s what I’m asking. It’s pretty simple. Not rocket science.
Check on your US record retrievers while you’re at it.
And here's a tip for one of those new international Web Sites; Singapore is not in Malaysia.
