Check Me Out: The Best Background Check Companies

Need to do a background check on someone? Whether you’re hiring a nanny, or enjoy playing the role of the intrusive father in his daughter’s relationships, a background check can be a useful tool for verifying information about an individual. 

  When looking to buy a background check service, consider that there are two major types available:    1. Full-service background check companies that do the bulk of the investigative work for you. This results in comprehensive screening that typically includes education and past employment verification. Some companies also offer information on felony and misdemeanor convictions, motor vehicle records, sex offender status, workers’ compensation history, military records and address history.    2. Background check sites that provide instant results by consolidating information that is already readily available on the web.  These sites are most useful if you just need quick information (that can otherwise be found with a Google search). This could include marriage information, details on arrests, bankruptcy details. etc. Experts typically warn that information on these sites may be wildly inaccurate because they typically don’t verify the information they source.    Riffbuddy users have been consumers of a variety of background check sites of both kinds.
