Background Verification Services

Faced with challenges in the form of increased remote hiring, tighter recruitment budgets, ban-the-box, Fair Credit Report Act (FCRA) and Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) regulations, and the gig economy, employers must re-think their background verification processes. They must combat risks such as candidates misrepresenting their personal, professional, criminal and academic histories to secure a job or get a loan.

In such a scenario, background screening and verification providers need to stay abreast of new screening tools and technologies, manage huge volumes of data, and quickly acquire capabilities to augment and optimize their screening process.

We provide comprehensive and strategic support – across people, process and technology – to leading global companies to help mitigate diverse risks and create a safe work environment.
