According to HireRight’s 2017 Employment Screening Benchmark Report, 77 percent of organizations report that screening revealed an issue with a candidate that would have not been discovered otherwise. On the contrary, a CareerBuilder survey revealed that 68 percent of candidates continue looking for a job while a background check is being issued. By combining applicant tracking systems (ATSs) or HRIS management systems with background screening services, companies can spend less time on screening, while proactively mitigating risks. This technology not only assists human resources with the process, but also provides a more efficient and improved candidate experience.
