LATAM Offer Letters and Background Checks

Summary

Legal or Best Practices with Offer Letters & Background Checks

Content

Hi Everyone,

We are learning from our LATAM countries that they have only done offer letters after the background check is processed. However, we want to validate that this is a legal standard across companies and not something that is just a best practice for for our company based on historical practices. We also want to understand if it’s a better way to do this work.

Secondly, we also want to validate the type of background check processes are actually required. We have learned about a number of physical checks – medical, polygraph, home visits, etc. We want to know if other companies are doing these checks as well.
