Background screenings are a critical part of the candidate hiring process. Since they are typically done by a third-party provider, the experience can feel disjointed and lengthy compared to the rest of your staffing company's process. Julie Ann Bittner, TRICOM CEO, discusses this critical part of the hiring process in this month's Insight with Insiders podcast with Joe Doyle, Vice President of Sales for InCheck. With over 24 years of experience in the HRTech industry, Joe brings a wealth of expertise in background screening solutions, SaaS technologies, and driving consultative customer success across multiple industries with staffing being a major focus.

Joe explains how the background screening process can be unified with the rest of the applicant process to create a more branded, streamlined experience. He also details how managing expectations in terms of how background parameters can impact the timeline of the search, as well benefits of digitizing as many of the forms as possible, can make the process go more smoothly. Digitizing can also help with compliance, as well as enhancing the mobile experience (including texting capabilities!), since these days few candidates apply from a desktop computer. Finally, Joe outlines strategies for choosing a background check provider – one that will help you win the War for Talent.
