CV Analysis

What Is It

CV Analysis

A CV Analysis check compares the information a candidate has provided on their CV or resume against the information they submit during the formal screening process. Any discrepancies in dates, job titles, qualifications, employers or other key details are flagged for review.

This check is a fast and cost effective way to identify embellishments, misrepresentations and outright fabrications before investing in a full suite of background checks. It works as both a standalone service and as the first step in a broader screening programme.

• ✓ Cross-checks CV data against candidate screening submission
• ✓ Flags discrepancies in dates, job titles and employer names
• ✓ Identifies qualification misrepresentations and embellishments
• ✓ Fast turnaround as a standalone or bundled check
• ✓ Detailed summary report delivered via the InteleScreen hub

Why It Matters

Why Conduct a CV Analysis Check?

Candidates frequently present one version of their career history on their CV and a slightly different version when they complete a formal background screening form. These discrepancies are not always intentional, but they are always worth investigating before making a hiring decision.

CV Analysis gives your hiring team an immediate, objective comparison of what the candidate claims versus what they formally declare. It is particularly effective at surfacing inflated job titles, compressed employment dates and undisclosed career gaps that might otherwise go unnoticed until a deeper check is conducted.

Used as the entry point to a broader screening programme, CV Analysis helps prioritise which candidates warrant further investigation and which checks are most relevant, saving your team both time and cost.
