Background Verification
I don't know about you, guys, but I have been wondering for long about how the schools in USA verify things that international applicants say about themselves. Do they simply pick up the receiver and phone HR departments of a company somewhere in Russia, Vietnam, Argentina etc. to ask whether Mr Smith is indeed employed and in which role? If so, how do they cope with language barrier?
Yesterday I visited an info session held by a representative of Columbia Business School and asked the question. The answer is pretty simple: the school uses background verification services. Columbia, in particular, uses Kroll. Marina provided some details of the process.

Even Wharton uses kroll. Unfortunately, not all schools have internalised background verification yet in their adm process. But I guess more and more schools are veering towards that now.
