Social Intelligence Corp prides itself on being able to discover previously unknown talents, awards, and achievements of candidates through publicly available online content, as well as assist in screening undesirable applicants by uncovering relevant information that human resource professionals may legally consider in the hiring process.
"Today we take our first steps into the future of background screening as we capture the opportunity of social media," said Bill Greenblatt, CEO. "Social media has come to define our digital existence, however only recently have we been able to combine deep social media searches with compliance practices in an effective solution. We now can dive into this pool where so much of the world's population practically lives."
In an FCRA-compliant manner, Social Intelligence became an industry leader by allowing companies to responsibly use social media information in a fair, non-discriminatory, respectful way, so that hiring managers can have access to the most modern and relevant sources of information, while redacting irrelevant or "protected class" information that companies are also exposed to through social media.
