Due Diligence
11. 11
• Pre-Employment
• It is generally accepted that at least 80% of job
candidates manipulate their CV in some manner when
applying for a role
• Sometimes the manipulation can be deliberately
dishonest, incorrect or missing key aspects of the
candidates career. In others the candidate merely
embellish their career achievements
• We strongly recommend clients perform pre-
employment screening of all new candidates but
particularly of those for senior or sensitive positions.
• The depth of the research will depend on the role
being applied for and the seniority of the candidate.
The cost of hiring the wrong person can be significant
and damaging to the reputation of the company

Audit to assess the issues identified by the client, we do
this using a combination of skilled and experienced

investigators to identify areas of concern (Red Flags).
Typically a normal audit using a sampling method and

• Fraud presents a significant risk to business
• Fraudulent acts can take many forms and includes theft of
tangible assets such as machinery or equipment,
misappropriation of cash, embezzlement of funds,
fraudulent financial statements, conflicts of interest
leading to procurement or vendor fraud, theft of
confidential information, and misuse of intangible assets
such as intellectual property
• The impact of fraud can have far more serious
consequences than a “hit” to the bottom line, or fines and
penalties from regulators
• Fraud can also have a catastrophic impact on a companies
reputation, its brand, its ability to hire and retain good
people, and its market share and shareholder value
