Criminal Background Investigations

The best way to understand your applicants’ criminal history is to ask them.

However, because applicants are not always forthcoming with honest and complete answers about past bad behavior, it is critical for employers to run a criminal background check to verify applicants’ claims.

PFC offers a number of criminal background investigation packages to meet every employer’s risk-tolerance and budget concerns.

Our most common criminal background investigation packages are outlined below, but we are always glad to help you design a program that meets your specific needs.

*Many, but not all, sex offender registrations are included in the multi-jurisdictional criminal records database.
**County research conducted in county of current residence only.

Qualifications Background Investigations

Many candidates inflate their qualifications to be more appealing to prospective employers. In fact, more applicants lie about their education and employment experience than lie about their criminal history.

Verifying their claims are also integral to establishing applicants’ honesty and integrity. If they lie to you walking in the door as an applicant, can you be surprised if their behavior doesn’t change as an employee?

PFC offers a variety of services to verify your candidate’s qualifications. Following are our most commonly requested options, but we are glad to help you custom design a qualifications investigation to meet your needs.
