- In recruitment, a third-party credential is an employment credential issued by a party other than an employee or employer. Employment authorization and drug test are common examples of these credentials.
- Employment authorization is a government authorization of someone's eligibility to be employed. An employment authorization document is usually called a work permit. In the United States and most of other countries, hiring employees who are not authorized to work is illegal.
- Drug tests are specified technical analyses of a biological specimen, for example, urine, hair, blood, breath, sweat, and/or oral fluid/saliva used to determine the presence or absence of specified parent drugs or their metabolites. In the United States, for instance, professional drivers and pilots must be checked periodically without any warning in advance.
- A list of a person's previous criminal convictions and, sometimes, pending charges, or their absence is known as criminal record.
- Position requirements usually clarify what credentials the employer looks for. Other requirements may include driving records, security clearances, professional licenses, trade certificates, and so on.
