Social Media Search
Why Conduct Social Media Searches?
HireRight’s Social Media Search
Reviews thousands of posts in a fraction of the time it would take to conduct manually
Is built to confirm the social media record belongs to the candidates using both technology and human analysis
Focuses solely job-relevant information as determined by the employer and limits exposure to protected characteristics and class information that would otherwise be revealed
Identifies content related to intolerance, harassment, and violence in its standard configuration—for companies sensitive to substance abuse, drug and alcohol use can also be flagged with an advanced configuration option
Does not report on behaviors such as mainstream political beliefs or civil political discourse to ensure the findings are balanced and not discriminatory
Uses context analysis to avoid inappropriately attributing quotes of third parties to the candidate
Applies a fair, consistent, and documentable set of criteria to screening your candidates’ social media (which may often not be the case when employers are doing this themselves)
Escalates relevant cases for review per an employer’s defined criteria, but does not make recommendations on hiring decisions—those are always down to the customer
