Employment Background Checks

If you're trying to find out if someone is eligible for employment, if you're just trying to get the scoop on someones background... then it's well worth using an employment background check to get to the bottom of their past. This not only means that you will be able to find out if they are going to be okay to work in your organization, but you can also get a pretty good idea of their character too.


Background checks are basically where you find out someones past just from their public records. Public records are basically when your details are stored in official buildings (such as court houses or police stations) for official reference. Whenever you get a criminal conviction, married, divorced, have any financial troubles, etc - the details are all recorded and stored as public records. Background checks take these records and put them into records about people.


The problem is that since there are so many records, it can take a very long time to match the person you're looking for with some records that you've found.

To combat this, online background check websites have been established to give you the easiest and quickest way to get employment background information from public records. One such site, "Public Records Pro" actually has over 400 million public records on file which you can search through. You can search for someones name and then build a custom background report around them, detailing everything from their marriage status to their criminal convictions.
