Screen Smarter. Pay for What Matters.
Sequential Screening lets you verify trust in stages so you stop overspending on candidates who were never going to make it through.
The screening system was built to overcharge you
Most background check providers force you into all-at-once screening.
- Even the ones who drop out.
- Even the ones who fail early.
- Even the ones you never hire.
That’s not how trust works. You deserve better.
SEQUENTIAL SCREENING
Break the background check into intentional (cost-saving) stages.
Each step unlocks the next only if the candidate passes.
1
Start with essentials.
Break the background check into intentional (cost saving) stages.
2
Advance qualified candidates.
Only candidates who pass move on to deeper, more expensive searches.
3
Screen with confidence.
By the time you run criminal or MVR checks, you’re screening candidates who are real, engaged, and worth the spend.
What You Gain
Lower Screening Costs
Stop paying for searches on candidates who won’t finish—or shouldn’t pass.
Faster Time to Hire
Fewer delays. Less friction. A cleaner funnel.
Reduced Fraud Exposure
Catch identity issues early—before they become expensive mistakes.
Higher Funnel Visibility
See exactly where candidates drop off and why.
Built-In Compliance
Each step is intentional, documented, and defensible.
“The fact that we can run the MVR first and see if we can even accept them after the background check is run is really, really crucial, especially with time to hire… I think that is the biggest selling point for us as a 1099 platform — that we could run the MVR first.”
