When you prepare your resume, you try to design it to represent yourself in a way that will entice an employer to want to meet you. And some items might cause you to worry about how they will portray your work and education history. For example, should you say that you graduated from university, when in fact you are short two or three courses? Or, should you say that you resigned from a job last year, when you were actually laid off? And, should you fudge the dates of entries to obscure a period of time when you were not in school and not employed?
Such temptations are understandable, but are they worth using? The information that you provide on your resume, and how you express it, is entirely up to you. After all, the resume’s sole purpose is to get you the interview, during which you can elaborate on your skills and abilities.
If you are fortunate enough to get your foot in the door, the interview will undoubtedly expect you to expand on the details you’ve given in your resume as well as discuss many other related and unrelated aspects of your life history. Inevitably, any shortcomings that your resume has could easily be revealed. As well, you will quite likely be asked to complete a job application form.
Three major aspects of the application form are worth noting: Your resume is not a legal document, but the application form is; its design requires that you provide particular information, completing sections appropriately; and you are required to sign and date it to attest to the fact that everything you’ve supplied is the truth.
What you state on your application form must complement your resume; otherwise, your integrity will come into question. And the now-commonplace background check that employers undertake will verify your education, your work history, and your criminal background, should you have one. Recruiters might also run a credit check if you are applying for work in the financial field or a motor vehicle record check if you are required to drive for your job. In fact, many companies will run these checks regardless of the position for which you have applied.
Therefore, you need to be completely honest and truthful when completing the application form, being as specific as possible, because the details will be verified. And should anything that misrepresents you be discovered after you’ve being hired, the consequences could be dire.
If you want to leave a job off either your resume or the application form, do so; but do not adjust the dates of other entries to cover the time period. If the dates are not consistent with the resume’s data, both documents will come into question and cause the recruiter to question your sincerity and honesty.
The application form will likely ask if you have ever been convicted of a crime. This includes DUIs, which is the most common charge that will show up on background checks. If you have a criminal record, you could still quite possibly get hired; but if you do not disclose it, you will not likely get hired if this omission is revealed, simply because you lied. Your criminal record could be overlooked, depending upon what you did, how long ago it happened, and your explanation of the incident.
So be honest and forthright with all your details. Better still, if you have a charge that can be expunged, you should apply for a Pardon. This process will seal your record, removing it from federal databases so that it is no longer visible and cannot be accessed. Pardon Services Canada can assist you. A Client Specialist will ensure that all the required forms are created and compiled to support your application. Pardon Services Canada’s pro-active approach ensures that your case is processed expeditiously and you will be kept informed at each stage of the process. Your pardon is guaranteed.

Social Media Background Screening - What Impact Will It Have on the Job Seeker?
Prior to making a hiring decision, companies now commonly undertake criminal background checks and credit checks to verify the information gleaned from resumes and during interviews. Understandably, they want to ensure a safe working environment for their staff, service providers, and clients.
This verification process is often outsourced to companies that provide these services. Interestingly, another similar service is being offered – social media background screening, which investigates social and professional networking sites, blogs, and wikis, along with video and picture sharing websites. Social Intelligence is one such company that checks sites like Facebook, Myspace, Flickr, LinkedIn, and Craigslist for employers.
Social Intelligence doesn’t store social data. Rather it looks at up to seven years of a person’s history, but stores nothing. As well, it doesn’t pass on identifiable photos. In fact, it screens for only a few things: aggressive or violent acts or assertions, unlawful activity, discriminatory activity (for example, making racist statements), and sexually explicit activity. Also, it uses only the data an employer provides to run a search. This tends to be standard issue information from an applicant’s resume: a person’s name, university, email address, and physical location. Thus, ultimately, the applicant is the one supplying all the data for a background check.
These kinds of services actually make a lot of sense. Employers would have to be unwise not to Google job candidates; yet, it seems better for both the employer and the candidate to have a disinterested third party perform such background checks. If the prospect of having social media screening seems discomforting, job candidates should realize that most employers are already conducting such reviews. In surveys, most employers admit that they check out applicants’ Facebook pages, blogs, and Google footprints. One might well wonder whether this could be a violation of the law if the employer sees something that shouldn’t be seen (like religion or sexuality) or decides not to hire someone based on something that’s been found.
When employers work with companies that perform social media background screening, applicants are presented with reports on the information found. Then applicants can challenge the legitimacy of the information (just as they can with a credit check) or know what might be hurting their employment prospects. The process seems to be providing a service not just for employers, but also for job applicants.
Pardon Services Canada can assist with Criminal Background Checks, as well as Removing a Criminal Record through obtaining a Canadian Pardon and acquiring a US Entry Waiver. A Client Specialist will provide a complimentary private consultation to answer any questions, keeping all information strictly confidential.

Now Is the Time to Prepare for the Future
The anticipated tough-on-crime legislation that the Conservative government has promised is expected to comprise approximately ten bills addressing justice and public-safety issues. Although specifically which bills would be included is unknown, one that is most disconcerting is Bill C-23B.
Bill C-23B, intended to eliminate pardons for serious crimes, would replace the term “pardon” with “record suspension” and make the process of removing one’s record more difficult, more time-consuming, and more costly, and would allow a record suspension in more limited circumstances. Therefore, anyone with a criminal record should begin the process of applying for a pardon as soon as possible.
Since pardons in Canada are going to be more difficult to obtain due to the proposed eligibility requirements and increased submission fees, consulting a Client Specialist at Pardon Services Canada is the best method to achieving this goal. The complete application process will be handled professionally, efficiently, and discreetly. As well, Pardon Services Canada guarantees results. Anyone uncertain as to whether or not he qualifies for a pardon can request a complimentary private consultation.
Another consideration to keep in mind is the fact that United States border agents are turning people with a criminal record away much more frequently. Obtaining a US Entry Waiver is the only secure way to be allowed to enter the United States. A waiver is also required for individuals who have been deported, agreed to voluntary departure, overstayed a previous period of admission, or have been barred entry at any time. Since the requirements are different at each district Department of Homeland Security office, having Pardon Services Canada assist is the most prudent way to obtain a waiver.
Also, people charged with a criminal offence for which there is no conviction are affected. A criminal record results even if the charge is dismissed, withdrawn, or stayed. However, the police file for such cases can be deleted.
Pardon Services Canada offers a complimentary private consultation for anyone wanting to apply for a pardon, to have his police file deleted, or to obtain a US Entry Waiver. Speak to a Client Specialist toll free at 1-8-NOW-PARDON (1.866.972.7366).

Proactive Approach to Job Hunting via Background Checks
Companies are now routinely carrying out background verification of their new as well as existing employees, with human resource officials cross-checking every detail of job applicants before hiring them. The employee verification process includes determining the genuineness of work experience, educational documents, and existence of any criminal record.
Global recession, along with recent HR scams such as the fake pilot scam, has led to more comprehensive scrutinizing of employees. Now a niche industry has evolved: Companies are increasingly outsourcing the employee verification process to specialized third-party agencies to verify every detail of the applicant. This industry is growing at the rate of 30-40% annually. The focus has been more on newcomers rather than existing employees. However, more companies are undertaking reviews of current employees as well.
Many Canadians have realized the value associated with obtaining a Canadian criminal pardon, recognizing that it improves their employability and career advancement prospects – plus its relieving benefit of eliminating the shame, embarrassment, inconvenience, and fear that its disclosure could cause. Among the advantages in obtaining a pardon: The Canadian Human Rights Act protects individuals who have received pardons from discrimination, particularly from employers and landlords, and the Criminal Records Act eliminates the need for employees to reveal pardoned convictions on government employment forms.
Anyone who has a criminal record can apply for a pardon once his sentence is completed and a certain period of time has passed. Since a person’s criminal record background is readily available to the general public and can be easily accessed, and since companies are increasingly including background checks in the hiring as well as the promoting process, it stands to reason that a person seeking employment or advancement would benefit from securing a pardon with the assistance of Pardon Services Canada, the first and most trusted pardon company in Canada.
A prospective employee with a criminal record has less chance of being hired compared to an equally qualified person without a record. Even if an applicant’s charges are minor, they may cause employers to question the person’s character, honesty, and integrity. Many employers consider the existence of a record to be grounds for immediate rejection.
Most Canadian criminal records can be removed with a pardon, ensuring that all of a person’s criminal records and charges are separated from other personal records and rendered inaccessible. Pardon Services Canada’s role and familiarity with the pardon process will ensure that all documents required are obtained in a timely manner and that each applicant’s case is processed expeditiously.

Canadian Criminal Records – The Stumbling Block for would-be Volunteers
Canadians love to volunteer. Each and every day, Canadians devote their time to worthy causes. In fact, over a third of Canadians over the age of 15 have volunteered! The benefits of volunteering are tremendous, both on a community level, as well as personally. Volunteering gives Canadians the opportunity to give back to their great communities, or to contribute to a worthy cause. Furthermore, the personal benefits gained from great team environments, involvement in event planning, coordinating, and multiple other business operations are invaluable to Canadians looking to gain experience to supplement their resumes and CVs.
The opportunity for volunteering is drying up in Canada, however, as a result of recent criminal legislation. This legislation stipulates that an increasing number of volunteer organizations, including many large and well known non-profits, require criminal back ground checks on prospective volunteers. This legislation is not limited to any province in specific; it has a nation-wide effect.
The results have had an impact on the organizations as well as the prospective volunteers. Firstly, the organizations that are now required to get the criminal background checks face increasing waits with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) for their results as more and more requests pile up. Secondly, these organizations, due to the long processing time, lose out on valuable volunteers which many rely on for their day-to-day operations and special events. Finally, the would-be volunteers lose out on the opportunity to give back to their community or cause, as well as the valuable experience that volunteering provides.
13% of Canadians have a criminal record. This is a large number of Canadians that are being excluded from the ability to volunteer. It is important that checks be done in some circumstances for safety and diligence; however, the broad and often misrepresentative criminal record checks provided by the RCMP’s database which logs all encounters, not just offenses, can be seriously harmful to great volunteer candidates.
A criminal record check can be done quickly and affordably. It is in the best interest of these good Canadian samaritans to get a fast, cheap, background check to expedite volunteering and to get back to doing good for the community, environment, Canada, and themselves.
HIRING PRACTICES EXPOSED - Red Carded Before the Game
Increasingly, companies are using criminal record checks in their hiring process before even talking to the applicant. The criminal record check industry has provided a readily available, popular, and inexpensive tool for pre-screening hopeful applicants. This use, now widespread, eliminates all job candidates with criminal records. People with criminal records are routinely being denied any opportunity to establish their job qualifications. Such a “blanket” approach is clearly flawed if not plain wrong; it seems not only unreasonable but also potentially illegal under civil rights laws.
Criminal background checks serve to determine the safety and security risk of candidates for employment or promotion. However, to assume that the existence of a criminal record accurately predicts such risk is illogical. Employers are using these checks as a way of determining character rather than qualification. The best qualified or even well-qualified individuals are being swept aside irrationally. These blanket exclusions provide no opportunity for employers to consider critical information, such as the nature and age of an offence plus its relationship to the job.
Another emerging aspect is the potential for covert discrimination – using criminal records to screen applicants serves as a facially neutral selection process that invites consideration and review. As such, the National Employment Law Project’s March 2011 report urges employers to reconsider their current hiring policies. An individualized assessment should take into account the nature and gravity of the offense(s), the time that has passed since the conviction and/or completion of the sentence, and the nature of the job held or sought. This approach would ensure that people with criminal records are not eliminated for youthful indiscretions, minor run-ins with the law, or more serious offenses from long ago.
Supporting this approach is the fact that a criminal record is difficult to interpret, making it a misleading tool to determine risk on the job. The BC Civil Liberties Association has raised concerns about employers using the PRIME (Police Records Information Management Environment) database for pre-employment checks. In the past, this database was considered a highly confidential tool for law enforcement. One of the problems inherent in using this database now for employment screening is that some information is being recorded as “negative contact,” a concept far too broad in scope for employers to base life-defining decisions upon. If it is going to be used increasingly for background checks, people will be demanding greater access to ensure information provided is accurate.
This is another example of what you don’t know can hurt you. How many people can tell you with 100% certainty what is in their file? How many of these hiring managers even know what their file says about them? If you are serious about your employment search or career advancement – do your best to have ALL the answers before you become excited about an application submission. Your past experiences, hard work, education and qualifications may be worth absolutely nothing to a potential employer if you set off a red flag.
Sun of a Beach...Criminal Record Limits Travel
Canadians love to travel. This fact is reflected in the number of Canadians currently holding valid Canadian passports increasing to 60 percent from only 36 percent in 2005. Although the recession in 2008 kept many from travelling the way they would have liked, some choosing to pursue the “staycation” while the economy was sluggish, the number of people traveling has since rebounded.
During the 2010/2011 winter travel season, 10 percent more Canadians travelled to the US than the previous year, with Hawaii proving to be the one of the most attractive places. The US is a top destination for Canadians. In fact, several US locations are currently on the list of the top 25 beaches in the world for 2011. Unfortunately for some would be travelers, a Canadian criminal record limits your ability to travel to the US.
Travelling abroad has also seen a resurgence. In the winter, Canadians love the sun, choosing R & R on beaches and cruises. And during the other seasons, destinations like Mexico, Cuba, Britain, and China are increasingly popular. To take advantage of lower flight costs, a significant number of Canadian travelers are now going to the US for flights to US destinations and around the world.
Quite apparent is the position that the US holds in all these ventures. A predominance of travel is either to or through the US. What a shame it is that so many Canadians cannot even consider pursuing their dream vacations because they have a criminal record. Only through getting a pardon to remove that criminal record and receiving a waiver to gain entry into the US will that dream become a reality.

Seeking A Pardon Is The Only Recourse To Removing A Criminal Record.
Since 1970, over 400,000 Canadians have been issued pardons. 96% of those recipients have remained crime free in our communities. Why have so many Canadians endeavored to obtain their pardons, ridding themselves of their criminal records? Once people convicted of a crime have completed their sentence, paid their fine, or complied in any other way that the courts have ordered, shouldn’t they feel relieved? Shouldn’t they be able to put their mind at rest knowing that they have “paid their dues” and can now move forward and re-establish?
The fact is that everyone wants to undo errors in judgment that led them to having a criminal record. Get a new job, volunteer at their children’s school, coach a sports team, adopt a child, change one’s name, maintain custody of children during separation or divorce, these opportunities and others are not possible unless their criminal records are sealed through obtaining a pardon.
In addition, they most likely seek respite from the physiological and psychological impact of the burden that a criminal record causes. Not only do they want to move forward, they also want to gain peace of mind. When confronted with the procedure of undergoing a criminal record check while being considered for a promotion or a new job, while wishing to be able to volunteer for community endeavors, while worrying about friends or neighbours discovering the past: The stress can and does cause physical and psychological trauma. Anyone has the opportunity to have their record checked and should do so for peace of mind.
Receiving a pardon enables a person to live just as if he had never committed a crime – a pardoned crime will not be disclosed on a criminal record check provided by the RCMP. A clean criminal record is a requirement for moving forward, and applying for a pardon is the route to follow. Obtaining a pardon is a long process, so it’s best to start well in advance. Seeking the assistance of a pardon services specialist will make that process easier and provide the assurance needed.

The RCMP is the only body in Canada with the authority to perform criminal record background checks. Employers are increasingly using criminal record checks, through the RCMP, when qualifying prospective and current employees for new hires and promotions. An otherwise qualified person can expect to be turned down, even if the conviction was for a seemingly insignificant offence that happened long ago. That record exists and can be seen by employers. Even more unsettling is the fact that some companies have started applying their new criminal record policies retroactively. Long-term employees have been dismissed because of a minor, old offence.

‘The New Canadian Pardon: More Expensive & Harder To Get. Really?
The Canadian Government has proposed that the cost of applying for a pardon be raised to $631, after only recently raising it from $50 to $150. Some people feel that those who commit crimes should have to pay for their own rehabilitation, whereas others feel that if getting a Canadian pardon proves too difficult or expensive, many will never be rehabilitated.
Quite interesting is the fact that, for pardoning criminal records, the price is under debate at the same time as the general requirements: Is the pardons process strict enough, or should it be made more difficult?
This raises two important questions for discussion:
Raise the price? The Government claims it would offset the cost to the taxpayer – a claim that defies logic to some degree. Consider that taxpayers’ money is used to administer the justice system. Raising the cost of a pardon – and quite significantly - would prove obtaining a pardon prohibitive for many, most likely because their criminal records are currently preventing them from becoming gainfully employed. Not being gainfully employed results in the individual NOT being able to contribute to the public purse, and in some cases actually taking more away from it by relying on some form of public assistance. These people want to work. They are willing to pay taxes. Why stop them?
Make the process more difficult? One might well wonder what end this would serve. Take economics out of the equation. People who are legally entitled to receive a criminal pardon and are well rehabilitated or certainly have learned their lesson should not be further tripped up with another stumbling block. These are people who are working hard and are contributing members of society. The Canadian pardon process is already fair and effective, although it requires accuracy and thoroughness both on the part of the Parole Board of Canada and the applicant. Many people seek the assistance of Client Specialists to assure accuracy & thoroughness to better guarantee success with their application. But why make the process more complicated? A person who is working hard at life and contributing to society is not planning crimes. Do they really need more paperwork in Ottawa?
Because the spectrum of crime in Canada is so great, the likelihood of the average person knowing and/or associating with someone who has a criminal record is actually very high. Many everyday people have a minor conviction along with a criminal record. Most of these convictions usually result as a lapse of better judgment rather than an outright strategic criminal endeavor.
To make pardons more expensive or more difficult to obtain would be harsh and counterproductive to the average person.
Ultimately it will take more money away from the Government through lost future employment taxes than is collected from a one-time increased application fee. Rather than serving as a significant deterrent to the intended criminal, it hinders the productive rehabilitated individuals and looks more like an immediate, non-logical cash grab by the Government.
The Pardon Services Canada Guide To Choosing Your Record Suspension Specialist.
If you have a criminal record, you already know that it can prohibit you from doing certain things. Areas that are typically affected include work, travel, volunteering, education and even adoption! That is, until enough time passes so that you qualify to apply for a record suspension.
The Canadian record suspension procedure also known as a pardon in Canada can be a very intimidating and a confusing experience for the average person. Questions like; ‘Where do I find information on the record suspension process?’, ‘Do I qualify for a record suspension?’, and ‘How does it take to get a record suspension?’ all come to mind.
Unless you are a lawyer, most likely you will need some type of help preparing your application for the Parole Board of Canada in Ottawa. If you choose to take this on yourself – good luck! But please remember a few things.
• Different people require different record suspension documents.
• Fingerprints are a basic requirement for every application – but there are two kinds!
• You need to complete the right document package – different record suspension documents need to be provided in full, and can vary from person to person.
• Every record suspension application is different. What is good for one record suspension application may not be enough for another.
• A record suspension application needs to be properly prepared and fully completed.
You can try to do it all yourself, but why would you chance having your record suspension application returned because you forgot complete one very small but critical detail? Success or failure depends solely on how well your record suspension application is prepared. If your application is returned, you must wait one full year to apply again.
While the prospect of asking for help does not appeal to everyone, there comes a time when you need to stack the deck in your own favor. It’s better to team up with a record suspension specialist and give yourself the inside advantage.
So if you agree that you may need the help of a specialist, make sure that you team up with someone who has a successful track record, someone who can really guarantee that they can help you.
Ask these questions:
