Criminal history records investigations (CHRI) are a most critical need on the part of employers, landlords and not-for-profit organizations and POE believe our hands-on, labor intensive approach to these very sensitive records is the right approach.
Some background screening firms report to its clients on only those cases in which there is an exact match of name and date of birth, or exact name and other exact identifier. This is extremely dangerous for the end users of these reports, because the screening firm is denying the end user knowledge of other, possible criminal conviction history involving its applicants, which needs to be vetted.
Still, other background screening firms report to its clients every single case in the applicant’s name, if there are no other identifiers in the court dockets. These screening firms tell their clients that it is the client’s job to figure out if any of those hundreds or thousands of popular name convicted defendants is the client’s applicant.
This is equally dangerous and… it should not be the end user’s job!!!
POE quickly finalizes all criminal records searches resulting in a No Record or in a positive Hit.
POE stands apart from our competition by conducting a respectful, professional and effective interview with every single applicant on whom there are records with insufficient identifiers. As much as 15% to 25% of CHRI cannot be completed by searching the court records alone. POE excels at interacting with our clients’ applicants and determining, positively, whether our prospect is the defendant in any of the cases. And, this labor intensive feature is provided at no cost to our clients!
Don’t allow your vendor to send you only a portion of the records. Don’t allow your vendor to inundate you with EVERY possible record. And, don’t….ever, ever accept the responsibility to vet these records yourself.
That’s not your job it’s our job! And, no-one does this better than POE. No-one! POEknows vetting CHRI!
