Making good hiring decisions is always challenging because applicants actively work to present an idealized picture of their work history. Almost 80% of job seekers lie during the interview process, and close to half lie on their resumes. Whether embellishing accomplishments and job responsibilities or leaving significant gaps between jobs, it’s up to you to get to the truth! Former employers are also unlikely to share information you need to know about prospective employees because they don’t want the risk of a lawsuit if you pass on an otherwise qualified candidate.

First Choice is a full-service drug and alcohol testing lab, and we make it easy to schedule pre-employment drug screening. We also offer background checks when you want to get the complete picture of a prospective employee. No matter how hard a candidate tries to hide from his past, we’ll ensure you have the information you need to hire trustworthy employees. We offer DOT Physicals, fit-for-duty examinations, and the following background checks:

Motor Vehicle Records (MVR)-If your new hires will be operating company vehicles, we’ll make sure they have a clean driving record. We can search current records for all 50 states and notify you if your candidate has any moving violations.

Nationwide Instant Criminal All Names-Even if your prospective employee won’t be operating a vehicle or handling cash, he’ll be representing your company and interacting with other employees. We’ll make sure that the candidate doesn’t have a criminal record. We’ll check your candidate’s social security number against a database of over 300 million criminal records and state sex offender registries covering 49 states and the District of Columbia, Guam, and Puerto Rico.

County Court Criminal Record Searches-We believe in leaving no stone unturned, and we can also search county court criminal records. We’ll check your candidate’s name against felony and misdemeanor convictions in over 3,100 counties in the USA.

Most job-seekers are honest people who want to join a great company. Our team at First Choice is here to make sure they’re as honest as they say they are! Contact us online or at 501-661-9992 if you have questions about background checks or confidential drug testing services.
