HireRight overview

What is HireRight?

HireRight is a background screening platform, which enables organizations to perform employment data verification such as criminal record and health checks before recruiting candidates. HR professionals can gain insights into the latest hiring trends and opportunities, create job baselines, and define best practices.

HireRight conducts global searches across multiple public media sources and ID documents while adhering to local regulatory and compliance standards. Employers can use the dashboard to identify, view, and analyze the progress of the ongoing screening process through charts and graphs. Recruiters can also determine background check volume, turnaround time, criminal hit rates, and more using the key performance indicators (KPIs). It facilitates businesses in selecting candidates by monitoring the applicant’s behavior and information available publicly on social media.

HireRight offers integration with various third-party applicant tracking systems (ATS), including Workday, ADP VirtualEdge, Jobvite, PageUp, and Oracle. Candidates can use personalized portals to communicate with the hiring company, request for live help, receive email alerts for the requirement of documentation or signatures, and access resources or FAQs.

Integration rating: 3.5 (2)

We still use the HRIS/Payroll features and needed the two systems to exchange data and automate employee provisioning.

They work well together to streamline project assignment and goal setting without the unnecessary extra work of having to contact each assignee, or check their schedules in another application. Its a one stop shop

Our entire HR/Benefit/Payroll suite is housed in Paylocity so the ClearCo integration was amazing to have automation from ATS to flow into Paylocity to save time for our team.
