Do you know who you're hiring?
Verification is no longer as simple as requesting a copy of the candidate's degree certificate. The fake certificate industry has become so sophisticated that fakes often look just like the real thing. The cost of verifying is negligible when compared to the cost of rehiring. The process to check is also quick and easy, especially when the university uses Prospects Hedd.
HEDD enables employers, agencies, universities and other parties to verify a candidate's place of study, the award and grade they received and dates of attendance. It's free to register and the website holds the contact information to verify a candidate from all UK degree-awarding universities. The system is used by blue-chip companies, SMEs, hospitals, airports and embassies around the world to obtain candidate verifications.
