Human Resource (HR) Screening & Vetting

Reduce risk with a clearer picture of your candidates and existing employees

Your employees reflect your organisation. Each one carries your brand and your reputation in their hands. But traditional HR screening and background checks don’t consider the reputational damage caused when you employ the wrong people.

Our solutions are geared to provide a complete picture of an employee or candidates online presence. We provide objective clear information which allows you to be confident in your decision making.

Expanding the horizons of screening and vetting

Now employees are online, the accumulated costs of bad recruitment have never been higher. Anti-social online content can cause irreparable damage to a business. But traditional checks simply don’t factor in this new risk area.

At NetWatch we specialise in locating and analysing online information in a professional and compliant manner, as such we are well placed to assist when it comes to screening and vetting existing staff or potential new hires.

Our comprehensive, fully GDPR compliant screening service assesses not only a candidate’s online brand identity but their attitude and work ethic.

NetWatch provides a rounded view of candidates and employees. Our impartial analysis can validate the information they present to you, uncover risks, and remove unconscious bias during recruitment by introducing an objective, third-party view to employee data.
