Avoid Increasing Turnover with True Hire

Have a high turnover rate and can’t figure out why? Your company offers benefits and has a generous vacation package, but it seems like once a week, you have another resignation letter on your desk. You aren’t alone. More than 3 million people quit their jobs in May alone.

Nearly 44 percent of people who leave their job do so within six months of starting the position, which is why it’s important to do thorough checks on all potential employees.

It starts with a great background check. We suggest doing a social security trace as well as a criminal check to make sure they are who they say they are. If the person is going to have access to money, a credit bureau report is vital, and don’t skip the driving record if they’re going to be driving a company car. A drug test is also a must these days.

These are the basics, right? Most companies, including yours, are doing this already. Obviously your candidates are passing these checks, but are you verifying the info on their resume? A whopping 58 percent of employers have found lies on a candidate’s resume. Employment, education and license verification’s are one way to avoid high turnovers as a result of a bad fit. Speaking with both professional and personal references are a great way to get a feel for the person’s work ethic and personality.

Perhaps even after all this, employees are still leaving left and right. Employees can seek new positions for various reasons. Here are the major ones:

If you want to find what is causing people to leave your company, True Hire suggests utilizing exit interviews. Having employees who recently left your company answer specific questions, can help you learn how to retain other employees and resolve possible issues you weren’t aware of.

All of this sounds great, right? But who has the time to do all this?
Let True Hire help you out. Maybe you already have a background check package with us, but aren’t aware of the other services we offer.

Previous Employment Verification – We’ll make sure they actually did all those things on their resume.

Education & Credential Verification – Did they really finish that degree?

Drug Testing – We work with labs all over the country.

Reference Checks – We call the references for you and produce a full report to save you time.

Exit Interviews – No online surveys here; we call the former employee and ask any questions you want. Using a third party allows the person to be more honest than if someone within the company conducts the interview.
