Proportion of job seekers using incorrect information at its highest level in years. An increasing number of job applications contain a lie or false information according to new research. HireRight, a candidate due diligence company, found in its Candidate Health Check study that nearly two-thirds (63%) of applicants provide incorrect information to potential employers, in areas including criminal records, previous employment, educational attainment and membership of professional organisations. Over the last twelve months there has been a steady rise in the level of errors. In the third quarter of 2013, July to September, there has been a 12% increase in inaccurate job applications compared with the same period last year. http://www.hrgrapevine.com/markets/hr/article/2013-12-04-six-in-ten-job-seekers-lie-on-cv/?utm_source=Sign-Up.to&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=7962-308258-HRM+-+04%25252F12%25252F13#.UqWXXvRdVih
