Checking a CV does not only consist
in checking a diploma.
More than one CV out of three is embellished if not a fraud.

The practice is simple and routine. Here are some of the devices applicants use:
  • Virtual diplomas
  • False achievements
  • Responsibilities amplified
  • Inflated wages
  • Lengthening time spent in a post
  • Concealing unemployment periods
  • Embellishing causes for departure
 

Thanks to easily accessible Internet sites, anyone today can get hold of
  • Real fake diplomas from high schools or universities.
  • Fake stamps, emblems and holograms from prestigious schools.
  • Software programmes that modify one’s qualifications and diplomas with a change of name, year, or the addition of honours or a reference).
  • Virtual universities that provide false references by phone.
  • Various false documents such as payroll, work certificate, recommendations…

 

Our research department
  • Validating diplomas

    In order to validate a diploma, the date it was passed and the grades achieved if relevant, we approach the schools or universities where it was obtained.

  • Authenticating a career history

    With the Human Resources Services or the Managing staff of the companies, we validate the following information:
    • The dates of the candidate's employment
    • The positions held in the company
    • The reasons for leaving


  • Employer reference checking

    We get in touch with the candidate's former superior(s) or with the Human Resources Department likely to direct us to knowledgeable people. We work by appointment so as to secure the process.
