Description
Background checking is an area we've never really covered on the podcast. In the past, it has just felt like a necessary but very functional part of the hiring process. However, with the explosion in our digital footprints and the power of AI, that has now changed.
So, how can background checks now help prevent workplace misconduct and improve the quality of hire? Where does AI fit in, and how can we ensure everything is legal and ethical?
My guest this week is Ben Mones, CEO and Founder at Fama, an online screening technology company working with employers worldwide. If you haven't looked at what is happening in background screening for a while, this conversation with Ben will help you get up to date with what is possible.
In the interview, we discuss:
The impact of workplace misconduct
Talent screening
How background checks have evolved in the last 10. years
The "Cambrian explosion" of digital information
Using AI to unlock the signal from the noise
The importance of applying human expertise and judgment
The dangers of hiring managers doing their own checking
How does AI-driven screening work
Legislation, Compliance, Ethics and Bias
Improving the quality of hire
What does the future look like
