United Kingdom
Screening in the United Kingdom has developed significantly in the past decade. From both a cultural perspective and availability of sources, screening in the United Kingdom has become much more common place. We offer a full range of screening services to help support the traditional vetting process, as well as specialized screening for various specialized and regulated positions.
The screening process in the United Kingdom is much like it is in the United States, however, throughout this region, an applicant’s personal history information is often inaccessible or cannot be used to make a hiring decision because it is considered the applicant’s private information. As such, BIG focuses on working with our clients and your applicants to ensure that the applicant’s complete information is submitted at the time of the background check request and to facilitate the process by which the applicant must obtain needed documents.
