Verification Services

Verify Every Detail Before You Hire

Resumes can be polished. References can be selective. Credentials can be exaggerated. That’s why verification is a critical part of any thorough background screening program.

SureCheck’s verification services confirm the accuracy of a candidate’s history, credentials, and qualifications, ensuring you make hiring decisions based on verified facts. Whether you’re filling a safety‑sensitive role, meeting strict regulatory requirements, or simply protecting your brand, our verification process provides the clarity you need.

Our Verification Services

We offer a full suite of verification options to confirm professional, educational, and personal background details:

Time has changed

We complete verifications in line with FCRA standards, using a mix of automated and manual methods.

Education – $10

Confirms degrees, diplomas, and attendance dates directly with schools, universities, or accrediting bodies.

First checked through the National Student Clearinghouse (NSC).
If not listed, we contact the school directly by phone, email, or fax.
Three attempts are made over 3–4 business days, which may include requesting documents from the applicant (transcripts, diplomas) if needed.
Clients can opt out of using applicant documents by contacting Customer Service, but this may delay or cancel the verification.

Employment – $8

Confirms past employers, job titles, dates of employment, and eligibility for rehire.

If the employer uses The Work Number or another third-party service, we verify through that platform.
If no third-party service is required, we contact the employer directly by phone, email, or fax.
Three attempts are made over 3–4 business days, which may include requesting documents from the applicant (W-2s, pay stubs, offer letters).
Clients can opt out of using applicant documents or third-party services, but this may delay or cancel the verification.

Rush Processing

All verifications are processed in the order received unless a $25 Rush Fee is applied. Rush requests are prioritized but still depend on response times from schools, employers, and applicants.

DOT Employment Verification – $12

Meets FMCSA requirements by verifying a driver’s past safety performance history, employment dates, and reasons for leaving with previous DOT‑regulated employers.

Professional License Verification – $8

Verifies professional licenses, certifications, and their current status, including expiration dates and any disciplinary actions.

Professional Reference Verification – $12

Conducts structured interviews with former supervisors or colleagues to assess work performance, reliability, and skills.

Personal Reference Verification – $12

Interviews personal contacts to gain insight into a candidate’s character, work ethic, and trustworthiness.

Military Service Verification – $12

Confirms branch of service, rank, dates of service, and discharge status.

Social Media Screening – $25

Reviews publicly available social media activity to identify potential behavioral red flags, reputational risks, or alignment with company values.

Why Verification Matters

Identify false claims or omitted details before they become liabilities.

Certain roles (especially DOT‑regulated, licensed professions, or federally funded positions) require documented verification.

Avoid reputational damage caused by hiring someone whose background doesn’t align with your standards.

Verified facts mean fewer surprises after onboarding.

Every verification is documented and delivered in a clear, easy‑to‑read format.
