About the Screenings Tab

The Job Seeker detail > Screenings tab serves as the "doorway"doorway for connecting to integrated third-party vendors that provide Background Check (e.g., Justifacts) and onboarding (e.g., EMPtrust) services. The menus displayed here will reflect the information-gathering needs of the particular provider.

Important Note: While balanceTRAK facilitates interactions with integrated third-party providers, each provider will maintain a proprietary portal and associated interfaces, based on the agreement between your organization and the provider.

Submit a Job Seeker for a Background Check

In order to obtain a Background Screening from the integrated provider, the Job Seeker must first complete a BACKGROUND CHECK form.

Quick Reminders:

• Typically, a BACKGROUND CHECK form is sent to the Job Seeker after internal screening is complete. For more, see: Sending Self-Identification and Other Forms to a Job Seeker.
• To review what Forms the Job Seeker has completed, view the completed BACKGROUND CHECK form, or cross-check Job Seeker-provided information, navigate to the Job Seeker detail > Forms tab and: Review Submitted Forms.

Once that information is in hand, navigate to the Job Seeker's Screenings tab. Because some vendors may allow you to select certain options, follow the provided prompts, and click [Submit] to forward the form to the third-party vendor and initiate background screening.

Quick Tip: To be submitted for the check, the Job Seeker will be placed in a corresponding Job Seeker Stage (e.g., HR Review), and either advanced OR dispositioned, based on the check's outcome.
