Services

A credit report search provides a detailed overview of a candidate’s financial history, including credit score, outstanding debts, payment history, and any bankruptcies or liens. This check helps employers assess financial responsibility, particularly for roles that involve financial decision-making or handling sensitive financial data, ensuring a more informed hiring process. 

A criminal background check is an essential part of the hiring process, helping employers assess the criminal history of potential candidates. By screening for past convictions, arrests, or pending charges, this check ensures a safer and more secure work environment. It allows businesses to mitigate risks, make informed decisions, and ensure compliance with industry regulations. Whether for pre-employment vetting or ongoing employee screening, a criminal background check provides critical insight into a candidate’s history and helps protect the organization from potential liabilities.  

A civil background check reveals a candidate’s history of lawsuits, judgments, and bankruptcies, helping employers assess financial responsibility and potential risk. This check ensures that candidates align with company standards and helps protect businesses from legal or reputational issues. 

A county background check reviews criminal records at the county level, providing detailed information about any arrests, charges, or convictions within a specific jurisdiction. This check helps employers gain a clearer understanding of a candidate’s criminal history, ensuring informed hiring decisions and maintaining a safe work environment. 

A federal background check searches for criminal activity at the federal level, including offenses such as fraud, embezzlement, drug trafficking, and immigration violations. This check provides a deeper level of insight into a candidate’s criminal history, helping employers identify any serious offenses that may impact the safety or integrity of their workplace. 

A National Criminal Database search provides a broad overview of a candidate’s criminal history by checking various databases across the country. It includes information from federal, state, and county records, helping employers quickly identify any potential criminal activity. While it’s not a replacement for county-level checks, it offers a comprehensive initial screening to help ensure safer, more informed hiring decisions.

A state background check reviews criminal records at the state level, providing information on arrests, charges, and convictions within a specific state. This check helps employers assess a candidate’s criminal history and make informed hiring decisions based on state-specific laws and regulations. 

An international background check verifies a candidate’s criminal history, employment, and education across multiple countries. This check helps employers assess candidates with global experience, ensuring they meet the organization’s standards for safety, trustworthiness, and compliance, regardless of their location. 

A Sex Offender Registry check searches national, state, or local databases to identify whether a candidate is listed as a registered sex offender. This check helps employers ensure a safer workplace by providing critical information about a candidate’s past offenses and protecting the organization and its employees from potential risks.

Our pre-employment driving records help you keep safe drivers on the road. Using online MVR reports, we’re able to provide our clients with driving history information in a timely manner.

A global sanctions check verifies whether a candidate or entity is listed on international sanctions lists, such as those from the United Nations, the U.S. Department of Treasury, or other global regulatory bodies. This check helps businesses ensure compliance with international trade laws, prevent legal risks, and maintain ethical hiring practices by identifying individuals or organizations that may be restricted or prohibited from certain business activities. 

 

Education

Education embellishments on resumes are common, making independent verification crucial when education is essential for the role.   

  • Onboard qualified candidates by confirming degrees and certifications.
  • Mitigate risk by ensuring candidates have the necessary education. 
  • Comply with industry regulations that mandate specific educational credentials. 
  • Avoid negligent hiring claims by verifying qualifications upfront. 

Our education verification services confirm credentials directly with educational institutions, including: 

  • Dates of Attendance 
  • Major Claimed 
  • Degrees Earned 
  • Graduation Date

We integrate with the National Student Clearinghouse to enhance accuracy and reduce confirmation time. International education verification is also available as needed. 

Experience matters, and verification ensures it. With resume embellishments on the rise, how can you be sure you’re hiring the experience you require? Employment verification services provide independent confirmation of an applicant’s work history, helping you: 

  • Ensure Integrity – Misrepresenting work history is common, and hiring dishonest employees can be costly. 
  • Verify Accuracy – Confirming past employment ensures candidates have the experience they claim. 
  • Reduce Risk – Unqualified hires can impact productivity, morale, and your company’s reputation. 
  • Streamline Hiring – Conducting reference checks in-house is time-consuming; we provide fast, reliable results. 

Looking to confirm past job performance? We check employment details, including dates, job titles, and eligibility for rehire. 

  • Professional & Personal References 
    Gain valuable insights into a candidate’s work ethic and performance. We conduct concise phone interviews with former supervisors, using tailored, open-ended questions to go beyond basic details and provide a deeper perspective. 

Ensure your candidate holds a valid and active license in their field. We directly verify credentials with the issuing state authorities to confirm authenticity and standing. 

A candidate’s online presence can offer valuable insights into their professionalism, behavior, and potential risks to your organization. Our social media screening services analyze publicly available content to identify red flags such as hate speech, violence, or other concerning behavior, helping you make informed hiring decisions while maintaining compliance with employment laws.
