01

High-volume hiring support

Send requests, monitor candidate progress, and keep screening moving across many open roles and client accounts.

02

Client-specific package control

Support package differences by client, role, geography, or placement type without rebuilding the workflow each time.

03

Cleaner candidate follow-up

Give candidates a guided link and give recruiters visibility into what is complete, missing, or ready for review.

Staffing Workflow Fit

Screen candidates without slowing down placements.

The staffing workflow is different from a single employer workflow. Your team may screen across multiple client rules, job types, locations, and start-date pressures.

Fast launch from candidate ready

Trigger screening when the candidate reaches the right hiring stage and keep the next steps clear.

Reusable package tiers

Use consistent packages for common placements while still supporting client-specific screening requirements.

Candidate progress visibility

See whether the candidate has started, submitted, or still needs to complete required intake steps.

Multi-client reporting

Organize screening activity around accounts, locations, billing codes, or recruiting teams.

Compliance-aware intake

Route candidates through authorization, disclosure, and e-signature steps before the report process moves forward.

Operational oversight

Give managers visibility into screening status and review needs without interrupting every recruiter.

Screening Mix

Support the common checks staffing buyers need now.

Build screening packages around criminal searches, identity history, employment or education verification, MVR, drug screening, and other checks that match your current staffing programs.

Criminal record searches

Use county, federal, national, statewide, and sex offender searches where appropriate for the placement.

Verification services

Confirm employment, education, references, or licenses when clients require additional confidence.

Driving and drug screening

Add MVR checks or drug screening services for roles where safety, client policy, or job duties call for them.

BackgroundPro can support screening programs where staffing firms need client-aware billing visibility, package pricing context, and reporting that helps separate screening activity by customer or branch.

Can different staffing branches manage their own background check billing?

Yes. Staffing programs can be organized around branches, locations, client accounts, billing codes, or recruiting teams so activity is easier to review and allocate.

Can recruiters order background checks for multiple client accounts?
