employee screening
Pre-employment background review
Employee screening is the process of evaluating job candidates before hiring, typically through background checks, reference verification, drug testing, or credential confirmation.
The goal is to verify qualifications and identify potential risks: All applicants must pass employee screening before receiving an offer.
The term also applies to ongoing checks of current workers for security clearances or compliance purposes.
