App, App and away for background screening
South Africa’s first mobile App for background screening has been released. The free App was designed and developed for employers, HR managers and recruiters who are constantly “on the go” and require real-time updates regarding background screening requests.
The App saves them the hassle and inconvenience of having to carry a laptop, go online and download e-mails or login and navigate the website.
What are the benefits of a background screening app?
You can:
- Search for requests that have been uploaded,
- View the details, results and/or statuses of requests that are being processed,
- Ask for verification results to be e-mailed to a mobile device,
- Check any outstanding information requests, and
- Receive notifications
The above can be done anytime, anywhere. The only requirements are a compatible mobile device and Internet connectivity.
