On Demand Webinar: Social Media Screening: Online Behavior is the New Background Check

Digital natives are growing from 50% to 75% of the workforce in the next 5 years. Their resumes tell you one story, but what happens after the interview?
From workplace violence to brand-damaging scandals, employee behavior shows up online before it shows up on the job. Social media screening helps employers spot potential risks, safeguard their culture, and stay ahead of costly compliance issues.
But here’s the catch: DIY social media screening isn’t just risky, it’s non-compliant.
Fama CEO Ben Mones joined Asurint to share how organizations can responsibly screen candidates’ public online content while staying within the law.
What You’ll Learn:
- Why social media screening has become a must-have in today’s hiring process
- How leading employers are already using social media insights to prevent risks and protect brand reputation from risks like hiring a racist teacher, a doctor selling body parts on X, and even preventing a workplace shooting
- How to leverage automated social media screening without crossing compliance lines
- Why doing it on your own could put your organization at risk
