1 hr confidence:
perspective globale/perspective d'ensemble Explanation: I think the Big Picture is used in the sense of overview/perspective here. Conducting background checks will put the the hiring company's impression of the prospective employee into perspective: it will either corroborate and validate information and image as presented, or provide various nuances of interpretation (slight exaggeration, outright lying, even understated credentials in some cases). This is not my direction but I suggest something along the lines of "Perspective globale" |
