What is Sterling Check?
Sterling background and identity solutions help you build a foundation of trust and safety for your employees, customers, and partners around the world. Sterling's CourtDirect technology provides direct online digital access to ~90% of US criminal search records, and SmartData technology enables Sterling to further automate across the end-to-end employment criminal background check process – from matching candidate data to determining reportability and applying any order rules.
When Sterling’s three locator tools are used together, they uncover tens of thousands more criminal records than instant database searches alone:
When Sterling’s three locator tools are used together, they uncover tens of thousands more criminal records than instant database searches alone:
- SSN Trace - Sterling identifies the address history associated with a given Social Security Number (SSN) using an extensive database of 10,000+ sources. These results broaden the scope of a pre-employment background check to include locations of residence (and names, if requested) beyond what the candidate has disclosed. Alias names also may be identified upon request.
- The Enhanced Nationwide Criminal Database searches State, County and Corrections criminal record databases to locate additional jurisdictions where a candidate may have committed a crime. Prior to reporting, possible felony and misdemeanor convictions and pending cases are verified against primary source court records to validate the record.
- Locator Select queries over 2,400 jurisdictions for bookings and criminal activity, covering most of the incarcerated population in the US, locating additional places where a candidate may have criminal record history. Prior to reporting, possible felony and misdemeanor convictions and pending cases are verified against primary source court records to validate the record.

Sterling Solution does the job
With every new hire, we run their background check through Sterling Talent Solutions no matter what department they will be in. The initiation is easy and Sterling takes it from there to run the background check and communicate with the new candidate.
- The initiation of a background check is very simple by only needing the name and email of the new candidate and submitting that as the new ticket.
- Sterling communicates with the new candidate to keep the background check moving which saves us time by not needing to keep a close eye on the process of the background check.
- Sterling communicates with the employer to let them know if additional charges are needed to run the background check and we can either approve or deny the charge.
- We have had to reach out multiple times to decrease the maximum we are willing to spend if past employers are using a third party to run the background check and it cost an additional amount to run the background. We have had to communicate back a forth multiple times to lower it to a more reasonable price.
- Since it manages the majority of the background check, it has saved me time, allowing me to work on other projects.
