Pre employment background screening can cover a wide variety of background checks, ranging from the well-known criminal background to employment screening and more.

An education background check helps ensure you’re hiring a highly qualified and well-trained candidate. Simply have your candidate fill out a one-page form with the required information and submit it to Triton.

In today’s global economy, a growing percentage of the workforce is internationally based. Triton provides International Education History Verifications for all of its background checks, including education, employment and reference checks.

Our checks use advanced algorithms to check a person’s identity and previous addresses against millions of credit records.

Eliminate frustration by using Triton’s reference check service. An experienced Triton representative will conduct a thorough interview to gain insight into a candidate’s strengths and weaknesses. Typical reference questions focus on dependability, honesty, judgment, character, strengths and areas for improvement.

At Triton, we understand that one size does not fit all. This is particularly true of reference checks. Depending on your industry and the positions within your company, you may wish to investigate or ask different questions to gauge everything from professionalism to safety in the workplace.

A Triton agent will ask you about the types of positions you hire for, which helps us formulate specific questions for the reference check process. We can also provide you with a number of questions (up to 20) that you can tailor to your liking. Alternatively, you can give us a complete set of questions that you deem appropriate.

Once we determine the questions, we load them into the Triton Advantage platform. Every time you request a reference background check, we’ll use those questions to conduct your specific check and will upload the results into your account within 24 to 48 hours.

Driving record abstracts will give you vital information about the person you’re hiring. Since your drivers are unsupervised, they put your company’s integrity in jeopardy every time they hit the road.

A proper background check, including a driving record abstract, helps mitigate this risk. Past behaviour can be a solid indicator of future behaviours. By knowing a person’s driving record, you can rest assured that you’ll have a smoothly running fleet.

Outside of background check services, we can run additional checks on terrorist watch lists, public safety records, tenant screenings and civil court searches to further enhance your security and pre employment screening process.

How long does it take to receive a criminal background check result? Our easy-to-use background check system makes the process smooth and efficient, allowing us to deliver results to you in under 15 minutes.

We source these reports from one of Canada’s leading credit bureaus, which checks millions of credit files and ensures you get the highest quality results.

An employment search will be recorded as a “soft touch” and is not used in calculating credit scores.

Fraud is not exclusive to the financial services industry. Your company has assets, customer lists, customer information, intellectual property and equipment. If any of this information was compromised or sold to fraudsters or your competition, how would you manage the fall-out?

Triton is an excellent company to work with. They are very responsive and accommodating to all of our business needs. They will go out of their way to meet the customer’s requirements, including adapting their process for special requests.
