Separate an applicant's statement from a verified credential

Format: Explainer.

An applicant may say they hold a credential, such as a work license. That is not the same as a reviewer checking it. Keep “applicant says” apart from “checked by.” An uploaded file must not change one label into the other.

Use this factual-record template:

Field	Entry
Applicant and role reference	Authorized internal IDs
Supplied statement	Exact fact as stated, with source and date
Supporting file	Restricted reference, not a broadly shared attachment
State	Supplied, verified within stated scope, or unresolved
Check performed	Reviewer with authority, method, source, date, and exact finding
Open question	Specific mismatch or missing evidence and next owner

Hypothetical example: a person says their work license is current. Their file uses a different form of their name. Record “statement supplied; credential review unresolved.” The file alone does not prove they lied or that the license is invalid. Nor does it prove they may take the job. The right human reviewer must check.

The reviewer must use the agency's approved checks. Record what they checked and when. A past check may not settle whether the credential is current now.

Greenhouse checks file type and user permissions to decide who can see an attachment. For Document attachments, it also checks document settings. [S05] Those are rules for who may see a file. They do not prove what it says is true. The right to read it is not the right to certify it or share it with a client.

Core Agentic can discuss a custom tool to organize these facts for review. It would not check credentials on its own. It would not decide who may take a job or rank, reject, or hire applicants. Book a Demo to discuss a summary that shows what was said and what was checked.
