SHI Group is not just protecting you from the nefarious hires but also from $100,000 white lies.
Hiring managers do not want to hire a double dealer who is working for his own pocket book and yours at the same time. They are the obvious bad hire. What about the sales manager who forecasts $500,000 in sales but only brings in $300,000 leaving you with all the production on the dock. He did not put any money in his pocket, but he simply did not update his forecast.
Many hires in China are afraid to bring you bad news. They paper over the bad news. They never really lie to you. These candidates just make you feel good today.
These are often nice people, but you cannot have them managing you affairs in China. The interview rarely can spot this problem.
White Lies May Harbor Much More Trouble
SHI Group finds people who are comfortable with their own skin. We can spot this in many interviews that we do before you see candidates. Seemingly perfect candidates often lack this. They have perfect resumes and have everything positive in the interview. However, no one is perfect, and they may not have blatantly lied to you. However, they shared only part of the story to make themselves look better.
The great hires are comfortable with themselves and not afraid to tell you the whole story about their work history. This is the kind of person you need working for you as they are not afraid to tell you the whole story.
My Mother was a bookkeeper for 35 years. She would say, “it is amazing what can be hiding behind a one penny difference in the account.”
We chase that one penny in the background check and often are amazed at what we find. The small voice in you needs checking out. We love to hear your doubts about a candidate story. SHI Group has doubts too, and will go to check both yours and ours. Some will prove to be bad hires and we will withdraw the candidate after giving you the data. Others will prove to be gold and we will formally recommend them to you to hire.
