Iflex verification info

[sania dutt]

Hi everyone,

I heard that after getting selected in Iflex, there will a thorough verification from Iflex.

Wht the verifications they do with reference to previous companies and educational background ?

Do they even check if the candidate has taken up the selection process within last six months (or recent times)...

Could anybody put more light in this regard.

thanks

This is to avoid entering fraud programmers into a firm.If you are genuine and write about yourself honestly then nothing to worry.Let them hire spies getting all information about your family since 17th century.

[Kj Reddy]

Now days most companies doing this cross checking to check how much genuine candidate they are recruiting.

[sania dutt]

Genuine means... wht kind of things they will be enquiring ?
Will that really hinder with the recruitment...?

Like a person attending the selecttion process again within six months will really matter ??

What checks/enquiries do they spy wrt to experience & educational background ?

[Kj Reddy]

Because of Sept 11, 2001 incident some of US based companies starting enquiring about crime history as main thing. In my previous company they enquired about me by putting some private detective agency from my school to my job before I join the company. Their main aim to find if I have any crime background.

I dont think they will check things like whether you attended their interview process within six months. So nothing to worry about it.

[sania dutt]

oh ok.... I am bit relieved now...
Thanx a lot.
Verifications related to crime is ok... thz the extreme case..
i was thinking if they enquire abt these things like did he/she attended the interview within six months of time...
Let me know if they carry on investigations like if the candidate has worked for a particular company for exact period (like I had mentioned approx 2yrs wherein i was thr for 1.7 yrs ) will that harm ?

Sania I am not sure about Iflex, but atleast those things didnt happened to me in my previous company.

Suppose I have commited 3 murders and sell marijuana to politicians but I am expert J2EE architect ,will they hire me?

[sania dutt]

Mohd Ali Advani.....I dont think Iflex is gonna take that much risk just for the fact that u r good @ j2ee... J2ee Experts can be got few more if they start the search again... might require some more time !!!

HI there Sania

I have been working with I-Flex solutions.
Well yes I-Flex does conduct a complete background check after you join the company. On the first day you need to fill in the background check form and give all your details abt your previous work experiences like Emp ID,Department name, HR contacts , Your direct Supervisors contact nos.
There is a thrid party which does all this on behalf of I-flex.
The procedure lasts about a month max.

Reagrds
Amit

[Manish Hatwalne]

But I still know ppl in iFlex who have shown fake experience, the contact person they gave was someone who helped them in the bluff though. Same applies to Kanbay...

Actually I pity their HR.

[sania dutt]

Thanks Amit. I am l'le worried as i had some problem with my prev employer in giving the relieving letter, as the current one said they want me to be within a week and that letter is not reqd for them. So I just gave 15 days notice but still they dint agree and didnot give the relieving letter.
I hope that should create a chaos with me during my background check.

[Amit Basnak]

Sania

At I-flex you will need to have the relieving letters from your previous employers. probably you need to discuss with HR@ I-flex about this issue. and you can show them your job offer letter with your first company and salary slips and give them the HR contacts and supervisor contacts.
Things might work out very well.
Are you joining I-flex at JB nagar Mumbai?
Amit

[sania dutt]

Am thinking to join, Iflex Blore.
Does verifications check happen after u join or b4 only ?

[Mohd Ali Advani]

If you are genuine and honest why do you care whether iFlex does background check on full moon day or new moon day?

[sania dutt]

Mohd Ali Advaniji, I think you didnot go thru the entire thread of this topic.

Better to go thru, b4 posting reply. Since replies mean a lot for the ppl in making a perfect decision.

Its not the point of genuinity or honesty, its the point in missing one document to be produced. SO that was the only concern in this regard...

[Kripal Singh]

Mohd Ali Advani your screen neame is real Nice!!!

For me I was not asked to provide my Xth marksheet, It was only my 12th , Engineering and my post graduage degree percentages. Personally I dont think that it will be a big issue. What matters the most is your latest degree percentages . Well during verification, they do get your marks confirmed from your university.

If they selected you on the basis of your engineering marks then it should not be a problem. Also one thing if there is a significant difference in the actual marks and the marks you provided to the HR then it is always better to tell the HR. Normally for a background check there is a separate form and it is done after you join a company.

Melina personally I dont think that this will be a issue. At the time of background check you can tell the HR , since anyhow your fullfilling the criteria of more than 60 % in your 10th so it wont be an issue.
Just do not take any tension and concentrate on your final engineering year.
All the best
Amit

[melina ser]

and about convincing HR i think why would he have problem when i am passing the criteria way behind.

During background check , typically for a fresher , you will be asked to provide all your maksheets 12th , engineering semester wise etc , name of the college/university, may be abtyour final year projects yea thats all for a fresher.

Amit

[melina ser]

and yeah what is the iflex firing rate .do some firing happens at the time of background check itself

Melina well since they want to put you in some projects which they think you're comfertable in , your final year projects come handy in deciding the same also after you join , you will undergo 2 months full time training in C/C++, Java, JSp , Databases. Typically a background check lasts for a month. About firing hmm, when I joined i-flex 20 months back , i-flex fired 12 odd people from its Pune office for showing fake experience certificates. Like I said before also , you dont need to take any tension just relax and concentrate on your final year. Because you're a fresher, background check wont take much time.

Amit
