SelectPI verifies previous employment submitted by the applicant.  Areas of verification include dates of employment, position, salary, the reason for leaving, and eligibility of rehire. SelectPI's standard is to complete two calls on each employment listed by the applicant. The first call is to the Human Resources Department, which provides the most accurate information, and the second, to the listed supervisor in an effort to obtain the additional information regarding the applicant's attendance, performance, and eligibility of rehire. In addition to our standard questions, we encourage our clients to provide customized questions for us to use when we contact both past employers and references... Questions that you believe are critical to ensuring the applicant's knowledge of your specific industry.

Records are searched using on-site resources as opposed to less current databases and will generally list all offenses and dispositions. Federal, State, and Civil investigative searches are also available.  Statewide records are available through the State Repositories in most states; however, these facilities are not always current in their information.
