HireRight, a provider of global background checks, drug and health screening, and electronic Form I-9 and E-Verify solutions, announced that its client NES Rentals improved screening turnaround time by 180 percent by integrating its background checks with SilkRoad Recruiting.
NES has 78 locations in 30 states in the Central and Eastern United States. The company placed a lot of emphasis on streamlining corporate processes as part of its growth strategy. NES Rentals identified time-to-hire as a key goal and diagnosed several bottlenecks in its background screening program.
One of the main challenges to NES Rentals was managing hiring operations through several different processes, creating inefficiencies. Long turnaround times in background screening, as well as poor customer service from a previous vendor, prompted NES to make a change.
“We considered several providers that integrated with SilkRoad, and HireRight was by far the best,” said Laura Westbrock, human resources manager for NES. “The HireRight platform is helpful and transparent about where my candidates are in the background check process. It provides greater visibility into our screening program, and significantly improved our turnaround time and efficiency.”
