Why is an applicant’s date of birth and race required for a background check?
Personal identifiers, including DOB and race, help our screeners determine whether records found in the course of an investigation do indeed belong to your applicant. If you would prefer not to have such information pass through your HR department, you can instruct applicants to fax their Release forms directly to AccuSearch.
