Pre-employment verification is very important. Companies must cross-check and verify important details about new employees before hiring them and letting them work. This includes learning about company activities, data, strategy, etc. Previous records of any convictions or pending cases are vital. With false degrees and experience certificates easily available, no reputable company would neglect verification. References from new employees are a must and should be cross-verified. It is advisable to contact the persons quoted as references to obtain details about the prospective employee. Additionally, checking the individual's social profile and Googling their name can provide further information. Companies must ensure they are satisfied before employing any person to be on the safe side. The appearance of a new person may not necessarily reflect their true character and capabilities.

Harsha,
I was with Reliance for 11 months, then there was a case of harassment, and I left without notice. Will my new employer know about it if I don't tell them? Are there any chances of me being blacklisted? They did not have all my details like my certificates. Am I safe? Will my new employer know? It's a huge MNC, and they have a background checking agency.

Hello sir, I was with Reliance for 11 months, but due to harassment, I left without notice. Is it possible that my current employer/potential employer will know if I do not mention this company is a huge MNC?

Hi,
I have gone through your query. There is nothing for you to worry about. An ex-employer cannot jeopardize someone's future, as indicated by your concerns.
Moreover, I agree that background verifications are carried out in a very shoddy way by people who do not have any experience in the corporate world. Background verification serves no practical purpose, as past behavior is not a guarantee of future actions.
There is always a first time when every offender commits something wrong, and it may not necessarily have happened in the past.
What is the guarantee that a person with a clean and good record will always perform well throughout their life or not do anything wrong?
With Aadhaar and so many advances in police work, an offender cannot hide forever and will always be caught, whether they remain in India or flee abroad like so many high-profile offenders.
So, background verification is just a means for the concerned consultancies to earn money by scaring the employers about the dangers of similar offenses.
A successful background verification is not a guarantee of future performance. A KYC system, as employed by the bank, is good enough.
What can an employee do, or where can they run away after a fraud, if the employer has copies of their Aadhaar card, PAN card, bank account details, passport, voter's ID, etc.?
Please relax, and if any discrepancies are put forward by the background verification agency, fight your case. Since you have not done anything wrong, nor committed any frauds, why are you worried?
Warm regards.
