“Switching to ClearStar gave us exemplary customer service, a wider network of drug screening facilities, and more control over our data. “

The process has become immeasurably smoother, with faster, more complete results and a support team that always delivers solutions, even for new requests. Their ability to help us locate rural drug screen sites and provide efficient access to out‑of‑network locations has prevented delays and kept our hiring on track.

Our previous provider was using ClearStar to complete their background checks but was providing poor customer service. Switching to ClearStar provided us with exemplary customer service, a wider network of drug screening facilities, and more control over how we receive data on the platform. This process has become immeasurably smoother for both our HR team and our new hires. We receive results that are faster and more complete. Any time we have a problem or suggestion, our support team gives us the solutions we need, even if it’s something they haven’t done before. They are always willing to hear our feedback and design a solution that works for us. We have employees in many rural areas, which can make it difficult to locate drug screen locations. ClearStar has helped us identify more locations, make them accessible, and provided a consistent and efficient method for accessing out‑of‑network sites so we don’t have to delay employee start dates.

“ClearStar’s integrations, real‑time updates, and mobile‑friendly candidate experience have reduced manual work and shortened turnaround times. “

Their customizable packages and global capabilities make it easy to scale screening to our business needs. The improvements in CDL driver turnaround times, from 20–25 days down to 7–10, have had a direct impact on our time‑to‑hire and operational readiness.

ClearStar’s integrations with our systems, real‑time status updates, and mobile‑friendly candidate experience have reduced manual administrative work and shortened turnaround time. Their customizable screening packages and global capabilities allow us to scale and tailor screening to our business needs, providing a more efficient, compliant, and candidate‑friendly solution compared to other providers. Since implementing ClearStar, we’ve improved both the efficiency and consistency of our screening workflow. Turnaround times are faster, manual work has decreased through automation and integration, and standardized screening packages have strengthened compliance and reduced errors. The status tracking and reporting tools have improved transparency for our team and hiring managers, shortening our time‑to‑hire and reducing follow‑up communication. One of the biggest improvements has been the turnaround time for CDL driver screenings. Previously, the process could take 20–25 days, but ClearStar has reduced that to approximately 7–10 days. Automated workflows, real‑time tracking, and streamlined driver screening packages have reduced manual follow‑ups and bottlenecks, allowing us to onboard drivers faster, reduce downtime, and better meet operational staffing needs.

“We chose ClearStar for their technology, seamless onboarding integration, and the ease of applicant authorizations by text or email. “

Our team now spends far less time chasing authorizations or managing ETAs, which allowed us to take full ownership of the Adverse Action process. Their fast turnaround times, often just a day or two, help us address any issues quickly and reduce company risk.

We chose ClearStar over our previous provider because of their technology, their integration with our onboarding system, the ease of applicant authorizations via text or email, and their willingness to adapt the system to suit our needs. Our team used to spend significant time chasing completed authorizations, manually initiating backgrounds, and sorting results or ETAs. Now we primarily monitor the process, as authorizations are collected at the time of hire at a much higher rate and ETAs are available directly in the system. The time saved has allowed my team to take over the Adverse Action process, giving HR full ownership of the background check workflow. Another major benefit has been ClearStar’s turnaround time. We often start employees while the background check is in process, and ClearStar typically completes checks in just a day or two. This allows us to address any adverse information quickly and reduce company risk.
