Client Challenge:

‍
Hiring a new employee is about more than just skills and experience—it’s about ensuring they align with the company’s culture and values. A candidate might ace the interview and seem like a perfect fit, but what’s lurking on their social media could tell a different story.

Inappropriate posts—such as racist, sexist, or otherwise offensive content—can create tension among employees, violate company codes of conduct, and even lead to HR complaints and lawsuits.

These issues not only damage team morale but also open the company to expensive legal and reputational risks.

How Lookio Helped:

‍
A fast-growing tech company turned to Lookio to screen the social media activity of their job candidates. Lookio flagged posts that showed patterns of behavior misaligned with the company’s values, such as discriminatory language.

This insight allowed the HR team to make informed hiring decisions and avoid bringing on individuals who could disrupt team harmony or pose a legal risk.

With Lookio’s detailed reports, the company had clear evidence to support their hiring choices, ensuring they remained objective and compliant with fair hiring practices while protecting their culture and team dynamics.

The Results:

• Enhanced Company Culture: By hiring individuals who matched their values, the company maintained a positive and inclusive workplace environment.
• Fewer HR Issues: Preventing toxic behavior before it entered the workplace reduced internal conflict and potential lawsuits.
• Informed Decisions: Lookio helped the HR team go beyond the interview, ensuring they hired not just skilled employees but good colleagues.

Why It Matters:

‍
Your workforce is the face of your company. Hiring the wrong person can harm employee morale, increase turnover, and cost your company in legal fees and lost productivity. Lookio empowers companies to screen for red flags before they become HR disasters.
