National Background Checks

A national background check centers on finding an individual’s history by searching a singular, national database. Today, most states only report a citizens’ history to statewide bureaus. It’s rare to find states that report to both statewide and nationwide registries. So, by doing a nationwide background check, it’s likely that only a few results will be returned, if any.

An Incomplete Picture

National background checks can be deceiving because employers think they are getting a bigger picture of an employee’s history. In reality, a national check only skims the surface of what an employer needs to know. This service will leave employers with an incomplete picture of an employee’s full background history. They are not as valuable as obtaining a statewide background check for multiple states.
