Employee Background Check FAQs

  • A background screening, also known as an employee background check or a business background check, is a process that is used to investigate the history of a potential employee. This can include looking into their criminal activity, driving history, and their employment or education history. 

  • Background screenings are important because they verify whether or not the information being provided to you by an applicant is true and accurate. Background checks also offer peace of mind that the person you are hiring is safe and will be a good fit for your company. 

    Pre-employment screenings can help you:

    • Hire the best candidates
    • Avoid harassment and safety issues
    • Prevent internal theft and fraud
  • What information is provided in a background check can vary depending on the specific type of screening service used. There are often add-ons offered if you want to investigate more than just the basics. Background checks can include:

    • Employment history
    • Educational history
    • Driving records
    • Criminal court records
    • Credit reports
  • The services offered by employment background check companies can vary, and as such, so can the costs. While the cost of running a basic background check might average about the same across the board, some companies will offer packages or services that allow you to customize your screenings so you can get a better deal or find something that suits your budget. 

  • The average background check takes three to five business days. However, many newer background check providers have automated systems that have much faster turnaround times, some in under 24 hours. A basic screening will likely come back faster, but adding on any additional services or checks will likely take longer.
