Identity Solutions You Can Trust
From recruiting to hiring to onboarding, our AI and data-powered identity verifications, together with our proven proprietary work processes, help mitigate potential fraud, reduce friction, and improve screening accuracy across the hiring lifecycle.
Complete Identity in Seconds
Candidates’ complete identity verification and results are delivered in seconds. Identity biographical information automatically pre-populates into the background check form fields, reducing delays due to typos and improving accuracy.
Why Identity Verification is Essential to Protect Your Business
- Inaccurate Candidate Data: Incorrect data entered by candidates — either intentionally or from accidental typos — can result in quality loss in a background check.
- AI-Driven Fraud: Traditional identity methods may no longer be sufficient as advanced technology, including AI tools, is making it easier than ever for candidates to manipulate identities during the hiring process.
- Remote Work Challenges: The rise of remote work means fewer in-person interactions, making it difficult to flag inconsistencies. Also, fake job seekers have increasingly been targeting companies who are hiring for remote positions.
Contractor, Vendor, & Temporary Staff Screening
Hold your contingent workforce to the same standards as your employees via pre-employment background checks. Whether they work directly with your organisation or come to you through a third party, they become the face of your organisation to consumers and other businesses, often working alongside your employees. Knowing your contingent workforce is just as qualified as your employees can protect the integrity of your business.
