Here are the four building blocks you can utilize to get the most comprehensive criminal record background check on your applicants, so you are armed with the complete, accurate and up-to-date information you need to make informed hiring decisions.

County Criminal Record Search – A majority of criminal records are kept at the county level, which is why a county criminal records search is essential to any criminal record background check. Check2Hire offers criminal research in every county throughout the United States.

Most counties provide felony, misdemeanor, and criminal traffic offense information. County criminal record search reports from Check2Hire include a case number, date of offense, filing date, charge(s), the type of charge and the outcome. Best of all, Check2Hire criminal records reports are easy to read – giving you the details you need at a glance.

Federal Criminal Record Search – Screen your applicants for crimes that fall outside state or local jurisdictions with a federal criminal record search, which can reveal violations like fraud, embezzlement, and kidnapping. Check2Hire offers criminal research in all Federal Districts in the United States.

USA Criminal Database Search – Expand the geographic coverage area of your criminal background search beyond the county level with this supplemental service. Check2Hire searches a proprietary database containing millions of records compiled from multiple jurisdictions in all 50 states. This database contains records from departments of correction, state court administrations, prison parole, and release files and probation records, among others. We then investigate possible records from the original source, giving you the most accurate, up-to-date information.

Sex Offender Registry Search – Discover if your applicant appears on a sex offender registry. Check2Hire searches a national database that contains sex offender registry data from all 50 states. Should a record be found, we then investigate further information from the original source.
