Review
Noting that it would be unusual (and unwise) to purchase a major piece of equipment without first examining its background and evaluating its suitability, Edward Andler, a nationally recognized authority on improving hiring practices, marvels at how many businesspeople will take on new employees without a similarly thorough inquiry. His Complete Reference Checking Handbook: Smart, Fast, Legal Ways to Check Out Job Applicants begins by puncturing the popular perception that truly significant information about work applicants is strictly off-limits. It then shows how to obtain the requisite data as efficiently as possible. --Howard Rothman
