Dear .......All
Its one of the problems, which alot many organizations do face these days. Organizations don't have any proper source or system of verifying, whether the candidate for a post has the similar background, exposure, organization and related references....etc.
What I have observed is, mostly we do trust and rely on the information provided by the interviewee (Applicant). Although, we do check his behaviour, attitude, knowledge and skills during our tests / interview process but still in my opinion we don't have any other system of validating his experience or exposure of the areas discussed during the interview.
Specially, candidate with somewhat experience might be very much clever in presenting himself and he does the same in such a smart manner (Remember, giving interview is all about marketing and presenting yourself and its an art) that you yourself consider him the right candidate.
I would like you all to share your comments, knowledge, experience and methodology which you adopt for checking the background and references of the applicant and other related areas.
Regards
Khalid
