Credit History Reports
The PEER Report from TransUnion gives you a completely unbiased account of a potential candidate’s financial background
information. It helps you assess the candidate’s financial responsibility by showing a complete credit history. PEER traces the person’s credit history. PEER can then help you identify those applicants who are potentially financially overextended or on the brink of problems that could adversely affect their performance on the job. It could signal a pattern of transiency or instability, as well as an inability to meet obligations.
SSN Verification & Address History Trace
Verify your applicant’s name, date of birth, previous addresses and alias names. Use this search in conjunction with our criminal searches.
Employment Verifications
This service verifies dates of employment, last position held, eligibility of rehire, job performance, reason for leaving, attendance, rate of pay, and employee warnings or notices. Verifications are retrieved either by phone to appropriate employer contact, or via web based fee services. The standard scope for employment verifications is 5 yrs.
Automate the collection and ordering of previous employer verifications using Verity – Online Application System. The employer information is interfaced directly with our systems, saving you valuable time by removing any and all data entry from your hiring and selection process.
Education Verifications
This service verifies an applicant’s academic history and credentials, including the date the applicant received their degree, the type of degree earned whether the degree has been earned or is in progress, the major of study and GPA.
I-9 Employment Eligibility Verifications
Priority Research will help you streamline and standardize your Employment Eligibility Verification process and quickly confirm that your employees are eligible to work in the U.S.
As a U.S. employer, you’re required to verify the employment eligibility of your workforce by completing and filing the federal Form I-9. This has historically been a time consuming, manual task not any more. Our easy-to-use, Web-based Employment Eligibility Verification (EEV) Services can help enhance your overall hiring efficiencies by automating the many typically manual procedures associated with processing your EEV Form I-9s.
Automatically verify newly hired employee eligibility through E-Verify, the Federal Electronic EEV system, immediately upon creating an electronic Form I-9. This links directly to Social Security Administration data. Reduce your paper management responsibilities, shipping, and storage costs by completing and storing the forms electronically. Decrease the time and resources you devote to data entry and form management. Standardize your EEV Form I-9 process and other I-9 related activities across your business – a critical service for large, decentralized organizations.
