ATLANTA, July 31, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — First Advantage, a global leader in background check and drug screening solutions, today announced the launch of Verified!, a new verifications process that can significantly shrink turnaround times from days to minutes with the help of its FCRA-approved proprietary database.
Verified! leverages First Advantage’s existing education and employment dataset to confirm education and employment information. Backed by the power of 66+ million screens each year, Verified! significantly decreases customer turnaround time and allows customers to lock in candidates before they move on to other potential job opportunities.
First Advantage is currently running 12,000+ verifications per quarter through the system, and employment and education checks take only seconds to clear. Customers that have already benefitted from decreased time to hire include brands that rely on high volume hiring, such as those in the retail and staffing industries.
Kelly Services, a global leader in staffing, has already benefitted from Verified! Linda Bartalucci-Phelps, Director Screening & Compliance, shared, “The industry is ready for a product like Verified! Leveraging the power of existing datasets is key to moving the needle on background screening cycle time and cost, and we are excited to be a part of this game-changing effort.”
Any First Advantage customer can benefit from Verified!—but the solution will become increasingly robust as customers agree to contribute their confirmed data back to the overall dataset. This will decrease turnaround times further, and customers that participate will receive credits that they can apply to screening products and services.
