Background Checks

Background Checking

Statistics reveal that nearly 40% of employment application information from applicants is falsified. A few more statistics from 2005 Annual Applicant Statistics as reported by InfoLink Screening Services:

8.5% have a criminal record
41% have motor vehicle violations including DUI's and possession of drugs
41.2% of credit reports have negative information
36.5% of past employment verifications had inconsistencies
14.1% provided false or inconsistent information about their education.
8.5% provided false or inconsistent information about professional license certifications
25.2% provided false or inconsistent military service

TG & Associates utilizes RHR Background Services Inc. for standard background checking. It normally includes a person's criminal history, arrest warrants/felony convictions, driving record and credit information.

More in depth searches such as employment record and education checks can be checked at an additional cost. The turn-a-around time is 24-48 but does vary depending on how many times the person has moved.

Depending on the state of application's residency additional forms may be required.

Please fax us back the signed release form to complete the background check.

Cognitive Assessments

Cognitive Testing/General Intelligence

TG & Associates utilizes a combination of online and written pre-employment tests to measure cognitive ability. Research has proven that cognitive ability or general intelligence is the single greatest predictor of job success for any position as it gives you the objective information you need to make the right hiring decision.

Cognitive tests are administered via an online assessment during prescreening of applicants and via hard copy proctored tests for consulting and final interviews.

Emotional Intelligence (EQ-i) Assessments

	Emotional Quotient Inventory (EQ-i) The BarOn EQ-i (Emotional Quotient Inventory) assesses the dimensions of intelligence responsible for recognizing our own feelings and those of others, for motivating ourselves, and for managing emotions in us and in our relationships. This is recommended for those hired and/or seeking management positions.

Personal Profile Analysis
The Personal Profile Analysis (PPA) provides insights into people's behavioral style at work, answering questions such as – What are their strengths and limitations? Are they self-starters? How do they communicate? What motivates them?
The PPA enables understanding of work style, to assist with identifying people's work strengths. This gives your leaders valuable insight into why people behave as they do, how to leverage their strengths for greatest success, and how to develop their potential.
It can be used to:

Improve your employee selection process
Increase retention of key staff
Enable more effective leadership

Insights gained from the PPA also enhance self-awareness, to help people develop their strengths and limit their challenges.
Once a behavioral assessment is completed (see sample reports) you select the relevant reports shown below to guide understanding of individuals, job fit, and teams.
