Canada Post Facilitates Background Checking Process

BackCheck has partnered with Canada Post to help candidates across the country submit their background checks faster than ever. Using an innovative process, the Crown corporation has bolstered the accessibility of background checks, allowing anyone anywhere in Canada to submit their information at their local post office.

Traditionally, job candidates were required to present themselves to a hiring manager for identity verification, causing needless scheduling problems and delays in the hiring process. However, with Canada Post’s new partnership with BackCheck, candidates now have the option of printing out an application at home and having their identification verified by Canada Post.

Canada Post employees fulfill the role verifying identity and making copies of the documents. The copies are scanned and sent securely to BackCheck for verification, and results are ready within 24 hours. With so many locations for candidates to choose from, the hassle of keeping appointments and taking time out of busy schedules has been done away with.

BackCheck’s Canada Post option provides greater flexibility to candidates and faster results. Ultimately, when hiring managers receive the results quicker, chosen candidates can start their new positions sooner. Moreover, the new partnership relaxes the burden on hiring managers, who were previously tasked with the collection of candidate data for checking.

BackCheck is Canada’s leader in pre-employment screening, and is pleased to have a partnership with Canada Post to facilitate easier background checks. For more information, visit BackCheck.net.
