Embrace the future of BPSS screening with us...
Historically, verifying a candidate's employment history was time-consuming, often requiring reaching out to former employers and gathering documents as proof of employment. This not only adds stress for candidates but causes delays in the screening process. With our Instant Employment Verification service, we've streamlined this experience. By partnering with Konfir, candidates simply provide one-time access through their bank, HMRC, or payroll provider, allowing us to quickly and efficiently verify their employment history. This means a smoother process for your candidates, and faster more reliable results for you.
Our fully consent-based process lets candidates grant access at will, allowing data access only with explicit permission.
A quick and simple process for your candidates , meaning faster and more reliable results for you.
