Social Media Screening

Social media screening is when a company or organization checks a person's public social media profiles — like Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, X (formerly Twitter), TikTok, etc. — to gather information about them. This is usually done as part of background checks, especially for:

• Hiring new employees.
• Verifying the character of a candidate.
• Checking for potential risks.
• Making sure someone aligns with a company's values or brand.

Benefits of Doing a Social Media Screening.

• Gain deeper insights into a candidate’s character and behavior beyond the resume.
• Identify red flags early to avoid potential legal, reputational, or workplace issues.
• Ensure candidates align with company values and work culture.
• Detect inconsistencies in claims made in the CV or during interviews.
• Evaluate how candidates may represent your brand in the public digital space.
• Support the overall background check process with social insights.
