Are you hiring new employees? Don’t forget the background check!

First Choice is proud to be Arkansas’ most trusted third-party administrator, and we offer every conceivable lab test at our southwest Little Rock testing center. You can always expect industry-leading turnaround times on drug and alcohol testing, and we keep a Medical Review Officer (MRO) on staff to verify the accuracy of all testing results. And if your applicants will be responsible for company assets or working in a prominent customer-facing role, we also offer pre-employment background checks!
Resumes often present a highly idealized version of a candidate’s employment history, and individuals with something to hide frequently obfuscate or omit details that they’d prefer not to share with hiring managers. But they can’t hide from their criminal past, and we’ll leave no stone unturned to help you properly vet all your prospective employees. Contact us anytime when you’d like to learn more about the following background checks:
Criminal background checks—Our criminal background checks include a Nationwide Instant Criminal All Names Search of over 300 million criminal records from the Department of Corrections (DOC), as well as state sex offender registries covering 49 states and the District of Columbia, Guam, and Puerto Rico. We’ll also search the Arkansas Administrative Office of the Courts (AOC) criminal record database and county court criminal records in over 3100 counties throughout the USA.
Credit checks—Plenty of good people have a few bumps in their credit history, but if your applicants will be handling cash or other company assets, you’ll definitely want to know about previous bankruptcies or other serious financial problems. We can check credit ratings, payment history, debts, and public records, and we’ll also search for outstanding liens or legal judgments.
Motor Vehicle Records (MVR) Searches—If your applicants will be driving a company vehicle, we’ll help you confirm that they have a clean driving record. An MVR search includes all moving violations in all 50 states, from minor traffic offenses to felony DUIs. An MVR search includes records from the previous 3 years, or further back for an additional fee.
