All Employment Verifications are conducted by the DDS Verifications Team who contacts each employer directly, unless the records are held by a third party, at which time we will retrieve the information from them.

According to Statistic Brain, a leading statistical research company, about 53% of resumes and applications contain incorrect information and falsifications. 29% show altered employment dates and 40% have inflated salaries. If employment information isn’t verified, an employer is vulnerable to making a poor and costly hiring error.

Employment Verifications are used to substantiate employment information entered on a job application or on the applicant’s resume. Within the general inquiry, DDS obtains: Dates of Employment, Job Title, Reason for separation from an employer, and a reason (if any) that the applicant wouldn’t be eligible for Re-Hire by that former employer.

If employment records are held by an authorized third-party instead of the employer directly, DDS will obtain all allowable information within that database.

DDS is proud of the information it provides regarding Employment Verifications. We do everything possible to get the information that you pay for. We do not have a “3 and out” rule, whereby after 3 attempts to contact an employer or get the required information the order is closed out with an excuse for not retrieving the information. This excuse-based result is for statistical reasons that effect turnaround times.

The DDS Verification team is results oriented and, as a rule will provide you with all requested information without excuses and within the accepted turnaround timeframe.

DDS also conducts D.O.T. Employment Verifications, where additional questions are mandatory to ask and be answered by the employer.
