vetting

Vetting is the process of performing a background check on someone before offering them employment, conferring an award, etc. A prospective person or project may be vetted before making a hiring decision. In addition, in intelligence gathering, assets are vetted to determine their usefulness.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Vetted Law & Legal Definition )
==Etymology==

To ''vet'' was originally a horse-racing term, referring to the requirement that a horse be checked for health and soundness by a veterinarian before being allowed to race. Thus, it has taken the general meaning "to check".〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Vetting )
It is a figurative contraction of ''veterinarian'', which originated in the mid-17th century. The colloquial abbreviation dates to the 1860s; the verb form of the word, meaning "to treat an animal", came a few decades later—according to the ''Oxford English Dictionary'', the earliest known usage is 1891〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Vetting )〕—and was applied primarily in a horse-racing context ("He vetted the stallion before the race", "You should vet that horse before he races", etc.).
By the early 1900s, ''vet'' had begun to be used as a synonym for ''evaluate'', especially in the context of searching for flaws.
