| Q: |
Why is a Social Security Number Verification necessary? |
| A: |
This is an excellent way to uncover information such as other names and/or
counties of residence an applicant may be attempting to keep concealed. |
|
| Q: |
What do you do with the additional names or counties found? |
| A: |
We compile all the names and counties found and conduct criminal records
searches under the additional names and additional counties found. |
|
| Q: |
What if an individual has committed a crime in a location not listed as a place
of residence? |
| A: |
No search guarantees that it will find every criminal record however, the
National Criminal Database Search (NCDS) as a supplement to an in-person county
search will reveal criminal records from across the United States held in this
comprehensive database. This search is only conducted in conjunction with an
in-person county search. ESS understands the value of the National Criminal
Database however; databases cannot be trusted as a sole source of criminal
records verification. |
|
| Q: |
Will the in-person county search and the (NCDS) cover all necessary areas to be
searched? |
| A: |
No! Crimes prosecuted on a Federal level need to be searched through the
Federal Courts. Examples of such crimes are: Securities and Tax Law Violations,
Immigration, Weapons, White Collar and Interstate Drug Crimes just to name a
few. |
|
| Q: |
Does ESS offer Drug Screening? |
| A: |

leaders in the industry and can report results in just 24 hours. |
|
| Q: |
What is your turn around time? |
| A: |

|
| Q: |
How does ESS comply with the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA)? |
| A: |
The FCRA states that no information can be obtained without the written consent
of the applicant. We required a signed Consent form on every person being
screened. No search is conducted without it. |
