Pre-Employment Screening

Before starting a new job, many employers require pre-employment screening, often involving employment background checks, to ensure candidates meet their criteria. In order to get employment, applicants may be evasive or choose to conceal certain information. They might also make false or unsubstantiated claims, aspects that employment background checks can help uncover. You might see unexplained gaps in employment history or a lack of paperwork. All of these are bound to make you concerned about your applicant’s integrity or reliability.
For these reasons, we offer standard and bespoke packages of pre-employment screening services. This covers all the bases, including comprehensive employment background checks. As part of this, if we discover any negative or business-critical issues, we will immediately advise you.
