Muzzo Re<<I never said that but the responsibility of the failure of the project would still be with the manager. Employee might have civil liability etc but the project still failed.<<< This really can be a double edged sword, in that you can be damned if you do and damned if you don't. Yes, that particular project would fail, but as a new employee, I wouldn't be putting him on a important project unless I had to. Normally I would start him out on the little stuff, and if he does well, move him up to the bigger stuff. The cost of doing a background check makes doing them prohibitive in most instances. Unless the cheating problem becomes persuasive, it will cost less money, and fewer feathers are ruffled to just do a miminal check. Thats business.
