Testimonials
Your reputation could be threatened or damaged, potentially taking years of time and effort to rebuild.
Undergoing a Social Media Check provides protection from reputational harm and ensures values and cultures are maintained.
With multiple schools in our Trust, we needed a quick, cost-effective and compliant procedure to conduct on-line checks of candidates. Social Media Check’s automated solution has been very effective. It is quicker and more comprehensive than a manual check, with results often delivered in under an hour.
The Leathersellers’ Federation has been using Social Media Check.com for a year and has found it efficient and effective. The process is simple for both the candidates and us. The reports are informative and compliant with KCSiE best practice.
Hiring the right employee is critical and reviewing their social media profiles is becoming a standard part of the hiring process. Undertaking this manually can be fraught with dangers which can be avoided with an automated social media check.
At Equals Trust we have been using Social Media Check for around a year now and it has been easy to implement. The checks are turned around quickly and efficiently and it gives us peace of mind that we are following the recommendations in KCSIE whilst reducing our risk of unconscious bias. The service we have received is great and we appreciate the certificate produced as evidence for our school SCRs. We definitely recommend social media check to other Trusts and schools.
We have been using Social Media Checks since November 2022, the checks are computer generated which has therefore saved us time from trying to carry out manual checks and helped to ensure that we have a consistent approach for all applicants who are required to complete this as part of our new joiner process to comply with KCSIE.
The reports and certificates are easy to view, review, and download, and the status of a candidate’s check can be seen via the Dashboard. Orders to add pre-paid checks are easy and instant via the portal
The team at SMC are extremely helpful and quick at responding to any queries we may have.
First Federation Trust having been using the social media check package for the past 18 months and we are very happy with the service. It has been an invaluable tool in our recruitment process, in line with keeping children safe in education. The portal is easy to navigate, and the comprehensive reports come back very quickly. We would highly recommend socialmediacheck.com to other schools.
With the changes to the KCSIE guidelines, we needed an efficient, cost-effective and compliant way to conduct online checks. Manually checking is time-consuming and can find characteristics irrelevant to a hire. Social Media Check’s automated solution reduces the risk of subjectivity and unconscious bias and its ease of use and comprehensive reporting has enabled us to realise operational efficiencies in our recruitment process.
At the Link Academy Trust, we have used the services of Social Media Check for almost two years now and have found them to be super-efficient with the turnaround time for checks. Reports are informative and we feel it does exactly what is required in line with KCSIE best practice.
When we first learned of the change to KSCiE with regards to completing online checks for all new employees we were concerned, particularly as an expanding MAT, how we would carry these out for all our new employees. Social Media Check has been a lifesaver and has helped us to ensure our Safer Recruitment processes are fully compliant.
