Running Background Checks on your future employees will help you maintain safe, compliant, and inclusive hiring practices – so if you're thinking of sending an offer, Zoho Recruit's Checkr integration makes it fast and easy to run background checks that best suit your needs.

Connecting your Account

To connect your Checkr account into Zoho Recruit, go to Settings > Setup > Extensions & APIs > Marketplace.
From there, navigate to the All Extensions tab and select Checkr. Click Install Now.

Select the specifications for your account. Once the installation is complete, you will need to authorize your account. Click Authorize to sign-in using an existing Checkr account or create a new account.

Running a Background Check on a Candidate

To run a background check on a candidate, go to the Candidates module and select a candidate record. Click Export to Checkr.

In the new tab, select the Checkr package. The different background screenings available for the package is also displayed.

A mail is then sent to the candidate asking him/her to fill in their details. In your Checkr dashboard, you can see the status of the candidate is Pending. Once the candidate fills up the details, two things happen:

• A new record is created inside the Checkr Reports module in Zoho Recruit. Once the background screenings are done, the candidate reports are sent to this module.
• Status is changed in your Checkr account dashboard. You can view its analytics and download a copy from the dashboard.

Depending on the report, you can get insights and take your recruitment process forward.
