In addition to the subject matter content expert podcast interviews from this year’s SHRM Conference, we also  conducted “man [or woman] on the street” interviews with some of the attendees that stopped by the employeescreenIQ booth.  Today, we are excited to posting the last of these interviews.  Among the topics discussed were their thoughts and attitudes and employment screening and background checks. Our favorite responses came when we asked about the biggest resume lies they had seen over the years.

If you ever watch TV or listen to the radio, chances are that you have heard of Matthew Lesko of “Ask Lesko” fame! He has developed materials that teach average Americans how to get free government money through grants, entitlements, etc. We were shocked to see him in full regalia at the Annual SHRM Conference and we just as surprised when he agreed to a podcast interview with us. We wanted to know what he was doing at the show, so we asked. The interview has absolutely nothing to do with background checks, but it was completely entertaining. This guy doesn’t get out of character. Take a listen. Enjoy!
