Mobile Screening is the New Trend Among Employers

In the last several years, employers have begun utilizing the rising trend of mobile medical and background screening with their potential new employees. Mobile screening allows employers to handle necessary screening in the palms of their hands, alleviating some stress during the hiring process. How can mobile medical and background screening improve the hiring process, and is it right for you?

Mobile Screening is Sweeping Across Employers in the Nation.

ID Validation and Facial Recognition

When it comes to mobile screening, facial recognition is a must-have; being able to snap a photo of your candidate’s face and their photo ID to verify their identity makes hiring contract labor effortless. All it takes is a mobile device and a few minutes of your time, and you’ll have results in under five minutes. It also reduces the chances of manual data entry errors and stores necessary documentation and data.

Drug Screening Evaluations

Drug screening can be stressful, especially when an employee’s job or health is on the line. Quick results can make all the difference, so it is incredibly convenient when test ordering and results are available on any mobile device. Mobile drug test ordering allows an employer to place an order online, watch real-time collection status updates, and receive results as soon as they are ready. Like ID validation, it also reduces the chances of manual data entry errors, as all information and options are online.

Background Screening

When background screening can be the deciding factor of hiring someone or not, getting fast and accurate information is essential. Mobile background checks help employers verify candidates quickly by having candidates enter information and e-signature consent from their mobile devices. Not only does it accelerate data entry and minimize mistakes, but it also allows for the uploading of custom forms and storing of e-signatures to maintain compliance. Giving candidates ownership of the screening process relieves employers of the stress of background checks, especially when they can receive updates through text and email.
