SOLUTIONS THAT SCALE

How Our Social Media Checks Work 

Hire quickly and confidently with social media searches that layer cutting-edge AI with expert human analysis.

Advanced automations review over 10,000 publicly available social media and online content sources to help reveal potentially risky conduct associated with your candidate, while suppressing protected class information.

Discovered content is reviewed using defined best practice methods to help confirm that the online source relates to your candidate or employee.

The completed report is delivered for your consideration in the hiring process. Content that may present a workplace concern is flagged for your review based on your pre-defined settings.

“As our company grows, we have to be mindful of risk. First Advantage’s systems allow us to be the nimble, fast growing company we are, while also covering us with the appropriate screenings we need to satisfy our standards and those of our partners.”
