Dear Members,
In a scenario,
1. Where the back ground verification agency requesting for feedback on option to rehire the candidate during the verification of ex-employee. An option of choosing “No” in the responding form of the verification agency, can bound to company to not rehire such employee in future?
2. Whether it is necessary to respond the verification agency; especially when we do not know of whereabouts of such agency?
3. What care must be taken, while responding to such agency?

I share my experience from the industry leaders I worked for. Here're the steps that were followed during a background verification for an ex-employee.
- At the point of background verification, we were clearly told to ‘validate’ the data provided to us by the Background verification firm. No extra information was supposed to be provided.
- This was purely to ensure the data privacy for the existing and ex-employees. As noted by you, we never knew, if the bank verification for a loan or the background verification would actually be from these organizations.
- We never provided any data on the phone. The entire communication was through the official email ids.
- There were calls from these firms, asking us to confirm the name, designation, salary, date of joining, date of leaving and, etc.
- We would then ask these firms to provide us with the scanned images of the employment documents pertaining to our organization that they have been provided by the candidate.
- Once we receive the documents, we would then confirm the information that they wanted us to validate.
- We use to revert, fundamentally on that and avoid every subjective question.
- There were very few cases for visa processing for ex-employees that required us to answer queries on the past performance and behavior. We answered the close ended ones.
Please make sure that you have a copy of every back ground verification report issued by you, to avoid any litigation in the future. Remain as objective as possible. This is a statement which would symbolize your company's professionalism in the talent market.
Hope this answers your query. Wish you all the best!

I feel every responsible HR professional and corporate citizen should respond to background verification emails. In this age of rampant frauds, fake resumes, and fake experience letters, verification has become a necessity.
By not responding to background verification emails, you may be either endorsing a fake resume or blocking the career of a deserving candidate. To avoid both, respond to verification in an objective manner, as suggested by other CiteHR members.

Background verification agencies charge a lot from companies, so when a background verification agency contacts you, inform them that there are charges for providing information, which amount to Rs. 500. Therefore, please collect Rs. 500 from them. Additionally, many background agencies lack experience and are unable to detect fake experiences. As a result, numerous people are still working with fake experience.

Dear Aurag,
1) An option of choosing “No” may sometimes mean as the company does have a rehire policy.
2) check the website, thats the best option
