Police Departments Struggling to Hire Employees
By Kaiden Waldram, Marketing —
San Diego Shortage
The San Diego Police Department continues to struggle to find people to fill their vacancies. They have tried a few different methods to hire more people. Recently, the police department has tried increasing officer pay. These pay raises have been as high as 25% or more! Although this is a very large sum of money to offer people, it has not helped to this point.
Woes of Hiring
Hiring is a very difficult process for many companies. There are many different struggles when it comes to hiring. Some companies have a large range of candidates to choose from, but none of them seem to be the right fit. Some companies have no one that would want the open positions. Some companies have constant turnover. Hiring is simply hard to do effectively.
Honesty is Key
One major issue with hiring is finding employees that will be honest. It is becoming more and more common for employees to steal from their company. They can do this in various ways such as working fewer hours than they put on their time sheet or making poor use of the time that they are on the clock. They could also simply be stealing money from their employers. All of these things add up to huge sums of money that are lost every year by businesses.
A company called Converus® is set on decreasing the amount of fraud and theft in the world through new innovative lie detection software. They are striving to make it easier to hire honest employees. Converus has created a product called IntegrityDetect®. Employee integrity testing helps companies determine if the people they are hiring are honest and trustworthy people. This product uses an advanced, scientifically proven formula to predict a person’s integrity by assessing past memories and behaviors.
Hiring is a difficult process, but it can be made easier by incorporating IntegrityDetect.
