Investigative Interviews for Employers

The most important decision you can make as an employer is the selection of your employees. 81% of people will lie during a job interview. It is human nature to exaggerate when we are competing against others for something we want – such as an open position with your business.

Drawing out the truth is a challenge for even the most experienced professionals. Our private investigators are trained to recognize when an applicant is withholding relevant information or when they are embellishing their qualifications. Our areas of concentration include employment history, education, turnover, qualifications, attendance, disciplinary actions, falsification of applications, criminal behavior, use of illegal drugs, theft from past employers, and more.

Let STT Security Services conduct intensive interviews that reveal the truth about the people who wish to work for your organization. Through effective design, questioning techniques, and years of experience, our team will help you identify deceptive applicants, reduce turnover, and therefore become more profitable.

Our Private Investigative Services Division offers a comprehensive set of solutions to help protect your organization from internal and external threats. We specialize in working not only with private businesses, but also with attorneys, law firms, and insurance companies throughout the country. Our investigators come from a diverse background of professional experiences in both the public and private sectors. The division is led by owner Jason VonReichbauer, a former police officer and detective.

If you suspect an employee is engaging in illicit or fraudulent behavior, we make sure to cover all of your bases:

  • Workers’ Compensation Investigation for disabled or dishonest employees
    • Surveillance
      • Discretely monitoring both physical location and behavior – as well as Internet activity – ensures the workers’ compensation claims are not falsified or exaggerated. This results in less liability and funds paid out from your business in the event that an employee exploits the workers’ compensation program and its benefits.
    • Site Investigation
      • Site investigations include checking medical records, employment records, and gathering miscellaneous evidence that could be relevant to a workers’ compensation claim. Whether something is out of place or just seems out of the ordinary, a thorough investigation can uncover details that might otherwise be overlooked and not considered.
    • Witness Interviews
      • Some of the most beneficial information can be gathered from people who witness an event that triggers a workers’ compensation claim. Whether or not they know it, bystanders and other witnesses can offer vital evidence that relieves your organization of liability for the claim.

Your business’s litigation can become costly, time-consuming, and start a slew of work for your public relations team. If it’s personal, your sensitive matters must be kept confidential and handled by professionals. Ensure that we have your back in any of the following areas you may need:
