Accurate identity information reduces hiring fraud, synthetic candidates and deep fakes.
Remote hiring, synthetic identities, stolen personal information, intentional deception and simple data-entry errors can cause an employer to screen the wrong person or no one at all.
iprospectcheck establishes a stronger starting point by connecting candidate-supplied information to external identity details that help create an accurate identity verification.

The process is designed to reduce uncertainty without creating unnecessary friction for
candidates or HR teams.
Send the candidate a secure, mobile-friendly invitation through the screening workflow.
The candidate provides the personal information and authorization required for the requested screening.
Review the Identity Verification results including legal and known additional names, date of birth, and address history to confirm identity and plan the scope of research.
Advanced Identity Verification verifies identity by binding a real person to their digital profile with cryptographic certainty. Eliminating deep-fakes and data mismatches before they get started.
Identity verification is not a criminal record search and it does not determine whether someone should be hired. It establishes the identifying information needed to conduct the right searches on the right person.
Review the data points connected with the identifiers provided by the candidate.
Surface prior locations that may inform jurisdiction-specific searches.
Identify aliases and other names associated with the candidate’s information.
When traditional methods produce insufficient data, biometric and cryptographic validation provide clarity.
Identity verification works as the starting point for a broader background screening program, not as a disconnected tool.
When information is incomplete or confusing, clients and candidates can reach knowledgeable people based in the United States.
Build verification and screening packages around the access, responsibilities, and regulatory requirements of each position.
Identity verification confirms that a candidate’s identifying information is connected to the person being screened.
Identity verification helps establish who the candidate is. A background check examines relevant history associated with that person, including criminal records, employment, education, licenses, or driving records. The two processes complement one another.
It should generally occur before substantive record searches begin. Establishing reliable identifiers early helps reduce wasted searches and points the screening process toward the appropriate names and jurisdictions.
No. Identity verification provides information to support a screening process. The employer remains responsible for employment decisions and for following applicable federal, state, and local requirements.
We had an opportunity to place one of our consultants on a large technology project and the client’s security team made the offer contingent on a fast-turn around on the background check. I initially used a well-known company and they were very slow to set me up, and even slower to deliver the background check. I reached out to iprospectcheck and was delighted to see the entire “end-2-end” process from my first phone call to Francisco Ortega to getting my 1st background check COMPLETED took a matter of hours as compared to days or weeks. They have the most automated (almost instant) integrations and their platform is easy to use, and customer service went way beyond my expectations. They are a true partner for my business going forward

We are a new customer of iprospectcheck.com and worked with Francisco Ortega, Dir., of Bus. Dev., to setup the account and it was seamless. He listened to all of our needs and requirements and was able to customize our pre-screening package quickly. We also had a thorough orientation on their pre-screening application process. Their software application, Swifthire, is also very user friendly. We were setup in a day and able to use the system right away.

I first contacted iprospectcheck.com when I needed a very quick turnaround on a candidate’s background check. I can’t tell you what a great relief it was to connect with a real person and for her to assure me that she would make sure the background was completed in a timely manner. . . and it was !!! I don’t need background checks very often, but they treat me like I one of their biggest customers. Speed, accuracy and good customer service . . . iprospectcheck.com has it all.
