Technological Advancements and Their Advantages in White-Collar Employee Screening

White-collar employees are an integral part of any organisation. With the boom in technology over the years, all employee screenings have had a paradigm shift from a more human-centric approach towards automation and artificial intelligence. In this blog, we will discuss technological advancements and their advantages over the traditional ways of conducting employee screening. Giving reasons and explanations as to how technological advancements have eased out these processes by making them cost-effective, efficient, and less time-consuming.

Education check

Organisations make it a point to check whether the employee has graduated from the institutes they claim as a lot of individuals use fake certificates in the resume to catch the eye of the recruiter. Traditionally, companies would usually have to hire third-party vendors or start a communication channel with the university themselves.

Shortcomings of Traditional Method:

Let’s face it, it isn’t an easy task to communicate with universities. Furthermore, hiring a third party for physical verification could get tedious due to multiple follow-ups, delays, and inefficiencies in the process. It would be unfair for companies to invest so much time, effort, and money and still never be completely satisfied.

Our Tech Innovation:

Over the years, AuthBridge has created a repository of almost 60,000 universities and institutes across the country. Every year, data from these institutions is updated and made accessible to our clients through data mining and proprietary search algorithms. The verifier needs to initiate a case with AuthBridge to get a detailed database-driven report highlighting any discrepancies. This not only saves costs but also eliminates the ambiguity occurring with the involvement of middlemen.

Vaccination Verification

Vaccination verification has emerged as the hottest new solution to ensure business continuity in the aftermath of a pandemic. By asking employees for proof of wellness, organisations are ensuring that they provide a safer working environment to all stakeholders.

Shortcomings of the Manual Method:

Asking each employee to download their vaccination certificates, and sharing them individually for verification is not only time-consuming but also bound to lead to friction and information manipulation.

Our Tech Innovation:

AuthBridge’s vaccination verification solution is a great enabler for organisations to continue businesses as usual through API-led verification of vaccination certificates. AuthBridge ensures access to authentic certificates through OTO-based validation, which reduces the onboarding TAT drastically while ensuring data security.
