In this video I will show you why you should do a background check and how you can do it. Why we need to do background checks? There are a lot answers to this question and all of them are correct.
Employers need to do background checks when hiring new people because they have duty to
their shareholders, stakeholders and co-workers to keep them as safe as possible.
Parents, and I’m saying this from my own experience, have to closely look after their kids. Kids don’t have clear view for the world around them. That’s why you need to take care of them.
You need to do background checks for babysitters, people your kids may be travelling with, people in the neighborhood who may appear suspicious and others.
A simple background check can provide you the information you need to protect your children. Before jumping into a serious relationship you may want to check who your partner is indeed. Unfortunately there are people who are pretending to be one thing and being another.
Now let’s move to the interesting part - how to do a background check.
I will use eVerify for the purpose. If you look around, you can find other similar services as well.
I’ll look for John Smith in the state of Illinois. I will hide some of the information for privacy purposes. The search produced 66 matches.
Let’s open one of the reports and see what information we can acquire. Since there are a lot of records and I look for widely used and common name the search may take 20-30 seconds. This is the full report and all the information for this person. Here you can find the address of the person, his phone number, date of birth, age, gender, education, marital status social security number and a lot other information. You can find previous and current phone numbers, addresses and e-mail addresses used by this person and when he has used them. You can gain a lot other information like criminal records, relatives and neighbors, vital records and property ownership.
Here you can see the criminal, traffic and arrest records. This person has 3 criminal/traffic records and eight arrests. You would think again and be careful if you need to hire him for a job or if he lives in your neighborhood.
The person has one known relative – Lisa Smith born in 1964. These are the neighbors of John Smith, their addresses and phone numbers. You can see that John Smith’s wife is Lisa Smith from the first section. In this last section you can find property ownership details.
You can find all information about the property owned by this person here. For example, the address, tax information, size of the property, evaluation range, purchase price, loans used, mortgages and a lot more information.
Now we have the full background info for the person and we can make informative decisions which reflect not only to us but to our relatives as well. Be careful when hiring that new babysitter, employee or when you have a new neighbor. They may be normal people like you and me but you won’t harm anyone if you do a quick background check.
