Question 83

As a result of a recent discovery of false information on employment applications, an internal auditor has reviewed hiring procedures. Which of the following represents a weakness in the control system?

I. Applicants are not required to have their signed applications legally authenticated.

II. Applicants' educational information is not validated with the educational institution before employment is offered.

III. Information related to applicants' long-term work history is not validated before employment is offered.

    Correct Answer: C

    Applicants' educational information and long-term work history should be validated before employment is offered to ensure authenticity and accuracy. However, requiring legally authenticated signed applications is unnecessary and uncommon in standard hiring practices. Therefore, the weaknesses in the control system are primarily related to the lack of validation of educational and long-term work history information.
