Background checks and other pre-employment screening services are an integral part of the hiring process. By properly screening a candidate through a comprehensive background check process, employers increase the chances of preventing negligent hiring lawsuits and provide a safer work environment to their employees.
6 Step Background Check for New Hires and Current Employees
Criminal History
Establishing whether an employee has a criminal record is a crucial step in assessing the risk of bringing that person into your organization. While not every crime would automatically prevent an applicant from being hired, having that knowledge allows you to make a fair and competent decision.
Our Private Investigators perform thorough criminal history searches in all U.S States and also in over 100 countries.
When we say thorough we mean we do not just simply plug a name into some database and present those results in our final report. Many states, counties and townships do not participate in online database sharing. Instead, each has to be individually searched and queried. We identify your candidates address history and will individually search all counties and townships to which they were found a resident or had an association with.
Employment
Job candidates are going to say whatever they can to get the desired job. There are times when applicants exclude certain jobs or vital information from their resume hoping that the employer will not be able to find it out.
Our skilled private investigators will conduct research on each individual and obtain a detailed work history based on private and public databases. We will then compare those finding with what the candidate listed on the resume that they provided. Those findings will be reported to you.
In addition, our private investigators will contact each previous employer and ask all the relevant questions that will allow you to make the correct hiring decisions.
Education
Our skilled private investigators will confirm all your candidates education history and also perform a degree verification.
Motor Vehicle History
We obtain the most current motor vehicle history report. These detailed reports contain information such as any moving violations, suspensions and if their drivers license has ever been revoked.
Credit Check
With a signed release from the candidate, we will obtain the most current consumer credit report. These report will include a FICO credit score and a detailed list of all credit relationships.
