Checkr works so you don't have to
We use Checkr across our whole organization to run background checks on our employees and volunteers. We had a very manual process prior to implementing CheckR with our database software. We saved hundreds of man-hours by automating our background check process. This has freed up our staff to actually follow up with the people we are researching and the references they leave us much easier than before, as they have time to do other tasks.
- Automation of the background check process
- Quality of background checks
- Ease of use
- We do not store Social Security information about our users; Checkr handles all of that.
- Customization of some things can be a little lack, but that is more of a regulation issue not a company issue.
- We have freed up at least one full-time staff member who focused primarily on background checks for our volunteer team.

Checkr Checks out!
Checkr is used to background check our contractors. It allows us to set the bar in our industry for risk mitigation and compliance. Checkr also gave us automation to improve efficiency in onboarding and best in class resources and platform training for our employees. Productivity is simple and streamlined with the easy to use dashboard.
- The analytics section in the dashboard allows you to sort by geography and date so you fully understand where and when your applicants are applying.
- The training resources available to employees make sure that we are fully compliant.
- The dedicated account manager helps us through all hurdles.
- The analytics section is not fully customizable and some data has to be retrieved manually.
- Checkr has reduced our onboarding time from 14 days to only a few days in most scenarios.
- Checkr has made our company more FCRA and EEOC compliant.
