International Background Checks
Kroll speaks the language of international background screening fluently — from the myriad rules and regulations to the nuances of multiple provinces, dialects, industries, and employment positions. With more than 60 global offices, our expertise and international resources allow us to identify critical information pathways and follow them wherever they might lead.
What We Do
To ensure prompt, efficient service, Kroll uses its own Internet-based background screening system that’s favored by many of our international clients. Job candidates enter their professional and personal data into a questionnaire at a secure Web site specifically designed for each client.Kroll receives the questionnaire over the online information-gathering system, allowing our screening specialists to proceed immediately while remaining in compliance with privacy laws that require candidates' authorization on the transfer of data across international jurisdictions.
When researchers have finished verifying the data, client reports are delivered online. Clients also can review report progress on a real-time basis, from anywhere in the world.
Kroll has the following unique capabilities:
- Knowledge of each country’s major players in education and employment
- Required release forms in multiple languages
- Invoices based on local currency
- National Reference Register, an automated, Web-based platform for managing reference requests
