Avoiding the risks and dangers of resume fraud
There are a range of falsifications that candidates make at all levels of job applications, from junior positions through to executive roles. At every stage, education remains one of the most common fraudulent reported information – easy to report wrongly, but it’s something that can have a devastating effect on businesses who don’t protect themselves.
Hiring a candidate who does not possess the right qualifications exposes your business to more than just the costs of replacing them. If they do not have the right skills and experience they can damage key relationships, affect the timeline of crucial projects and hurt your business reputation as well as your bottom line.
The threat is posed not just to your HR budget – but to the goals and objectives you work so hard as an organisation to achieve. And that’s not including the resources needed to pull you back to square one after the mistake has been made.

How are qualification checks performed?
The following process is used to complete a Qualifications Check:
- We contact the awarding institution to verify the details of the candidate’s education.
- Details are collected, including dates of attendance, name of qualification and graduation date.
- As standard, the highest qualification awarded will be checked unless otherwise requested.
- Only higher education verifications are completed (i.e. beyond high school).
The verification process is managed via telephone, fax, email or directly with the institution. A formal report forms an important part of the process.
What do I receive as a result of the qualification check?
An official certificate of results is made available to you online. This can be accessed from the WorkPro dashboard.
Do you require consent from the candidate to complete this check?
To meet National Privacy Regulations express candidate consent is mandatory as part of the application process.
Are academic transcripts supplied as part of this process?
Educational institutes in some countries insist on receiving a transcript as part of the verification process. If this is the case, WorkPro will inform you of this requirement as part of the submission process.
