Pre-Employment Web Background Investigations in Pembroke Pines, FL; Social Media Internet Search & More

Why is that people will post their rants against fellow workers, supervisors or company on social media, and expect not to be caught? We regularly see headlines of thieves, robbers and even homicide suspects post their incriminating adventures online. Why do people do that? They scream about privacy but publish their most intimate and personal information online, which is for criminals, essentially a confession on the internet. The internet seems awash with material than can affect a persons employment potential in a negative way. You trash the boss online and get fired for it. What do you expect for consideration if you move on, many companies now are doing pre-employment background investigations, the primary source being the internet and social media.

Search Social Media Posts for Intel

There are tools that can search all the social media sites in one search. Both private investigators and law enforcement use the internet to find information to drive an investigation and to find evidence to build a case.
Social media searches for intel on someone’s movement and mobility, associates or character. Background pre-employment searches are to establish ‘character’ and trashing your former boss or company is not a positive for future employment. There is evidence in the form of statements, comments, photographs, involvement in illegal activity as well as links to aliases. Social media can confirm working experience, education, location and can discover information with supporting evidence for infidelity and divorce cases.

Image Recognition Applications

Pre-employment background searches establish employability of the subject, a two-edged sword, social media can reveal an outstanding candidate for employment or give insight into their ‘dark side’. One site even offers a photo imaging recognition service. Upload a photo the search begins. Reverse image searches can peruse the net and find every instance a photo has been posted. Why does it work? We are generally lazy and will use the same picture across the net, along with our other aliases.

Assumed Name Search

Some social media sites even have their own embedded search engines. But there are gems that will search up to 60 sites with a single entry. Others link online alias to the person, at the very least where that nom de guerre (assumed name) is used. Most of us use only one online name for everything.
