This is somewhat of a touchy subject so I will tread lightly.
I am interviewing some folks for a company position and one of the applicants has a year and a half gap between his previous and most recent jobs. He tells me he was out of the country but I suspect that he may have simply avoided listing a job. We are a smaller company and the HR rep is relatively new but she tells me that we have no way of knowing because we can only verify the jobs/dates listed on his resume/job application.
Is this true? Any ideas on how to check for potential fraud/avoidances?
Thanks in advance,
