Employment Background Checks & Candidate Screening
Hiring decisions depend on having accurate, timely information about your candidates. Universal Background Screening delivers customizable employment background checks that help you hire the right people, while staying compliant with FCRA and state regulations.
Our services include county, statewide, and federal criminal record searches, as well as alias and address tracing using our proprietary SSNsight™ tool. For safety-sensitive roles, we provide motor vehicle records and driving history checks, and for regulated industries, we offer employment, education, and professional license verifications.
Average turnaround times are under two days for criminal searches and under three days for verifications, helping HR teams and recruiters move quickly. Our PBSA accreditation ensures you receive trusted results backed by rigorous compliance standards.
Many of our clients’ background screening programs encompass more than traditional job candidates. Universal Background Screening can also help you conduct background checks on vendors, temporary staff, consultants, volunteers, students, executives, and other populations of your extended workforce. We also conduct employee re-screening for clients to help ensure they learn about employees who commit crimes after a pre-employment background check is conducted.

Whether you need simple criminal searches or comprehensive screening packages, Universal builds a program tailored to your workforce.
