Background Checks & References
When one or more candidates move to the final decision stage, we initiate a rigorous background and reference-checking process. This includes civil and criminal background checks, social media and online reputation reviews, and cold-call references with former supervisors, direct reports, clients, and vendors. To maintain objectivity, Swift Recruitment Agency UK does not accept candidate-provided references, as these are often curated and biased. Our goal is to provide a true, 360-degree view of the candidate’s professional reputation and leadership legacy.
