Why aren background checks instantaneous?
While much progress has been made in the electronic accessibility of information, most searches still require human involvement. For criminal searches, some companies perform a database search for arrests and convictions. HRP avoids these searches because they are oftentimes not up-to-date, are arrest-only information, and/or are incomplete in their conviction and sentencing information. So while the allure of instantaneous checks is great, HRP will only perform complete, accurate, and up-to-date searches for its clients, and will strive every day to deliver these quality searches as quickly as possible. Additionally, when performing business reference and employment history checks, the HRP staff is trained to make every attempt to speak directly with supervisors or managers of the applicant. The goal is to obtain more investigative information on the applicant than can be obtained from a third-party information broker.Again, the instant check is instant, but not very useful.
