Background Screening

Overview

Bankruptcy Records
This is a national search of the bankruptcy courts that contain records concerning people and businesses that have filed for protection under the U. S. bankruptcy laws.

Civil Records
Civil records include suits, judgments and tax liens. This search provides the details contained in the court files.

Credit Report
A credit report documents whether an applicant has met his or her financial obligations. An unsatisfactory report will reveal such things as a history of excessive debt, lawsuits, bad debt write-offs, and foreclosures. Raw credit reports are difficult to understand. Rexus translates the data and provides it to you in an easily understood format.

Drug Screening
We provide a comprehensive 10-panel drug screening test compared to the most often offered 5-panel screening. The 10-panel screens for: amphetamines, barbiturates, benyodiayepines, cocaine metabolites, marijuana metabolites, methadone, methaqualone, opiates, phencyclidine, and propoxyphene.

Federal Criminal Records
Federal offenses such as embezzlement, drug trafficking and extortion are tried in the federal court system, with the criminal records located in the 96 U. S. District Courts. Federal criminal records are not co-mingled with county or state records. To obtain a complete criminal record search, this search should be conducted in conjunction with county and state records.

Local Criminal Records
County court records are searched for misdemeanor and felony arrests, convictions and court dispositions.

Motor Vehicle Records
Motor vehicle records reveal the driving history, including arrests and convictions for traffic violations, suspensions, revocations, the current status of the license and whether it is valid. Rexus translates the raw records for you and provides the information in an easily understood format.

Professional References
Former employers, supervisors, and peers are contacted to obtain information concerning an individuals technical skills and work ethic are obtained along with an individuals interpersonal skills.

Professional Licensure
The professional license is validated by determining the date it was issued, the expiration date, complaints or documented derogatory information, and the status of the license.

Sexual Predator Registries
Sexual predator registries contain the names and other pertinent identifiers of individuals who have been convicted of sex crimes. These individuals are required by law to register their whereabouts with law enforcement authorities that have jurisdiction in the area where the sexual predator resides.

Social Security Number Trace
The validity of the number, the state in which it was issued, and whether or not it has been used in fraudulent transactions are checked. In addition, a felony warrants check is done to determine if a felony warrant is outstanding for the Social Security Number holder.

State Criminal Records
There are a number of states that have state criminal record repositories, which contain the records of all counties within the state. When state repositories are available, it makes sense to check at the state level rather than with each county court system.

Terrorist Watch Lists
These lists identify individuals and organizations that have been identified by our government as being involved in terrorism or supporting terrorism. These individuals might be wanted terrorists or they are not granted access to the U. S. The listed organizations are those that are prohibited from doing business with or in the United States. We will search to ensure your applicant is not one of those listed.

International Background Screening
Increasingly companies are hiring people from other countries and require background checks of them. Rexus conducts international background work. Each country presents unique challenges, so please inquire about the time and cost involved for doing the background screening in foreign jurisdictions.
