A background check that works for candidates, too
Candidate drop-off is a hiring problem. Checkr solves it.
Checkr's mobile-first portal, real-time status updates, and built-in support reduce friction at every step—so candidates complete the process, and your team spends less time chasing them. Checkr customers have seen candidate contact rates drop by up to 15%.
Most candidates complete their background check on a phone. Checkr's candidate portal is built for it: forms, disclosures, authorizations, and disputes all work natively on mobile, with built-in error detection that keeps candidates moving.
Candidates can track exactly where their background check stands, down to the county level. When candidates know when to expect results, they stay engaged and off your support line.
A built-in FAQ and AI-powered chat experience handle the most common questions before they become support tickets. When candidates need more help, Checkr's multilingual support teams are there.
Candidate stories let your applicants share context around their records directly with you. If someone has a prior charge and wants to explain the circumstances, what they've done since, or why they're the right person for the role, they can. You see the full picture before making a call.

Expand your hiring pool
Roughly one-third of Americans have a criminal record. Hiring policies that exclude people with records from employment often lead employers to overlook massive pools of qualified talent. Candidate stories can help you source a larger prospect pool.
Increase diversity and inclusion
Blanket bans on hiring people with criminal charges can disproportionately affect racial and ethnic minorities, according to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. Candidate stories are a valuable tool for companies committed to building a more diverse and equitable workforce.
Support fair chance hiring
Many values-based companies believe that a criminal record should not mean a life sentence of unemployment or underemployment. Candidate stories put that belief into action, helping thousands of candidates get hired every year.
