Technology Sector: Global Software Company Accelerates Hiring
A global software development firm needed to hire hundreds of engineers worldwide on a tight timeline. Our hybrid screening solution combined AI-driven data aggregation with experienced human analysts, enabling automated international verifications without sacrificing accuracy. The client’s applicant tracking system (ATS) was integrated via API, automatically triggering background checks and pulling results into HR workflows. Because the solution is ISO 27001:2022 certified, every check met strict data-security standards, reinforcing the firm’s information security policies.
Dramatically faster TAT: By automating and parallelizing searches across courts, employment records, and credential databases, 90% of background checks now complete within 24 hours. In practice, the company cut turnaround from nearly a week down to under 1 day for most hires
Improved compliance: The service ensured 100% adherence to global hiring laws (e.g. FCRA, GDPR) and internal policies. Our SOC 2‑compliant processes (with background checks as a key control) gave the firm audit-ready security controls
Lower costs: Automated workflows eliminated much of the manual data entry. For example, AI tools now select and order necessary checks autonomously, reducing labor hours. This raised efficiency and cut screening costs by roughly 20–30% (consistent with industry reports of 20% savings on checks
Human+AI synergy: Our dedicated analyst team reviews any ambiguous results flagged by AI, ensuring nuanced, fair decisioning. This hybrid approach combines machine speed with expert judgment – catching 30% more red flags in complex cases, as one client observed.
Dedicated account support: A 24/7 account manager and screening specialist team provided real-time support and status updates. Clients could call or use an online portal to resolve questions immediately, ensuring accountability and a smooth candidate experience.
Our continuous-innovation culture means the system keeps evolving with the client’s needs. We regularly add new data sources (e.g. tech certifications, international police records) and compliance rules, so the software firm can scale rapidly without rebuilding its screening process.
Financial Services: Major Bank Strengthens Compliance
A leading financial institution needed to tighten its hiring controls for compliance and risk management. Because finance employees handle highly sensitive customer data and funds, the bank required exhaustive screening for all new hires and contractors. We deployed an ISO 27001-certified, SOC 2-compliant background check program that automatically flags financial red flags (credit issues, financial crimes) in addition to standard checks. Automated license and credential verifications (e.g. banking licenses, industry certifications) were integrated, and ongoing continuous monitoring was enabled for high-risk roles. All processes were auditable and aligned with FDIC, OCC, and SOX requirements, giving the bank greater transparency and control.
Enhanced compliance: The bank achieved 100% compliance with regulatory standards. Background checks became an embedded control for audits – for instance, the SOC 2 auditor confirmed that our automated screening met the necessary security control requirements. Likewise, by checking candidates against sanctions and OFAC lists and following FCRA guidelines, the bank eliminated any compliance gaps.
Risk mitigation: Continuous monitoring and AI analytics identified fraud indicators early. One internal benchmark showed the bank now spots roughly 30% more risk factors (unreported debts, litigation, etc.) in applicant profiles than before using our tools. This proactive risk discovery helps prevent insider fraud or financial crimes.
Speed & accuracy: Even with tighter scrutiny, the end-to-end screening time was halved. Automated data collection (OCR document scanning, digital identity proofs) and parallel checks mean most candidate verifications finish within 2 business days. Faster results helped the bank fill critical openings more quickly without reducing due diligence.
Cost savings: By consolidating to one integrated platform, the bank cut its per-screen costs. The automated system reduced manual follow-ups (e.g. chasing documents), lowering processing costs by an estimated 20%. These savings came even as screening depth increased.
Dedicated service & audit support: A senior compliance analyst was assigned to the bank to review findings and prepare audit reports. Real-person support ensured any compliance questions (FCRA obligations, retesting requirements, etc.) were answered immediately, reinforcing trust in the screening process.
In this case, Trust by Design was key. Because the platform maintains strict data encryption, consent tracking, and audit logs, the bank met both ISO 27001 and internal security policies. Regular compliance reporting and a comprehensive security certification (SOC 2) meant external regulators and stakeholders saw background screening as a robust safeguard. The client now confidently onboards bankers and advisors knowing the hiring process is fast yet fully compliant.
Staffing Industry: National Recruiting Agency Increases Efficiency
A large staffing firm handling thousands of placements annually needed faster, more accurate candidate vetting. High volume meant even small delays in background checks could derail client placements. We implemented an end-to-end automated screening program tightly integrated with the agency’s ATS. Whenever a candidate is offered, our system instantly launches the required checks (criminal, education, work history) and pushes results back into the ATS. This eliminated manual order entry and gave recruiters real-time status visibility. Our AI triages routine tasks (ordering standard checks, sending reminders), while our human team handles investigations and complex cases.
Rapid turnaround: Background checks now complete in hours rather than days. The agency has placed candidates roughly 50% faster than before. Reduced lag in the hiring pipeline means clients get workers on the job quicker.
Cost efficiency: Bulk screening and configurable packages drove down costs. For example, by standardizing the screening bundles, the firm cut per-candidate screening expenses by about 20% while maintaining accuracy. Labor costs fell too, as recruiters no longer spent hours on manual data entry and follow-ups.
Integration & automation: Our solution offered 100+ pre-built ATS/HCM integrations (e.g. Bullhorn, Workday). This seamless connectivity removed paperwork bottlenecks: candidate data flows automatically into checks, and clearance results flow back to the recruiter dashboard. Automated alerts also notify recruiters the moment a candidate is cleared, so they can onboard without delay.
Improved candidate experience: A mobile-optimized interface and clear instructions meant candidates completed forms quickly, reducing drop-offs. In fact, the firm saw a significant lift in on-time candidate submissions and a drop in no-shows. Recruiters noted that with fewer errors to adjudicate, new-hire satisfaction increased.
Human support: The agency benefits from a dedicated account manager and research team. These experts provide personalized guidance, quickly resolving any issues (e.g. obtaining a hard-to-find employment record in a foreign country). This high-touch support model has been cited by the firm as a key differentiator – helping them promise real accountability to their clients.
Together, these improvements helped the staffing agency meet very tight client demands. They can now say “Yes” to large enterprise customers who require same-day on-boarding, without sacrificing quality or compliance. Our continuous innovation (adding new country checks, compliance rules, and analytic dashboards) keeps the solution aligned with the agency’s evolving needs.
