<p>To that end, Claude views the company as an extension of their clients, so hiring high trust, high performing individuals is key to the retention of their clientele and the success of their business. A crucial part of that is working with the right vendors.</p>

<p>Given the complexities involved in hiring the type of workers he needed for his business, Claude knew he wanted a background check vendor that prioritized compliance and fair hiring practices. Checkr checked both of those boxes, and then some.</p>

<p>As the CEO of the company, knowing that we’re compliant with background checks by using Checkr and keeping up to date with all the regulations and changes helps me sleep better at night.</p>

<p>One of the most common roles that Office Libations hires for are their delivery drivers, which requires motor vehicle records checks. Before switching to Checkr, candidates were asked to bring in hard copies of their motor vehicle records, a process that was unreliable and often led to candidate drop off.</p>

<p>Claude and his team would then send those physical records to their insurance company to run through their own MVR check process. Since this was not a part of the insurance company’s regular operations, it could take up to two weeks to get the results.</p>

<p>Since switching their background check process over to Checkr, Claude has seen a perceptible difference in turnaround time from two weeks with their insurance company, to less than one day on MVR and<a>criminal background checks</a>with Checkr. As a result, they are now able to keep their insurance costs down, which in turn helps them to lower operating costs.</p>

<p>Claude also applauds Checkr for ease of use and a more streamlined criminal background check process. For example, Checkr's<a>candidate portal</a>gives Office Libations’ candidates the ability to provide all of their information and not worry about destroying physical documents or sending to third parties.</p>

<p>Checkr background checks are awesome. They have streamlined the process to be very easy. It goes directly to the candidate, they fill it out, and then it goes straight to Checkr. I don’t have to worry about being the middleman. All in all, it makes for a very fast hiring process, and a great candidate experience, which helps us not lose out on good candidates.</p>

<p>While hiring safe, responsible drivers is a top priority, Claude realized that when it comes to people’s backgrounds, what’s on paper is not always the whole story. So, he incorporated<a>candidate stories</a>into the hiring process, which allows candidates to share additional context around something that may be flagged on their record, and highlight any efforts toward self-improvement.</p>

<p>Claude believes that if their previous record doesn’t actually impact the role or what’s needed to perform it, then those individuals should still be considered for the position. And with candidate stories, Office Libations is not only expanding their talent pool, they’re also giving candidates who otherwise may have been overlooked a second chance.</p>

<p>We’ve all made mistakes in our life. Some of them we’ve paid for, some of them we haven’t. So it’s really important to understand the background of what happened with a particular instance that someone may have on a criminal record. What happened there? Were they 18 or did it happen six months ago? Having that context matters. Candidate Stories allow us to see the full picture.</p>
