Absolutely horrible company to deal… Absolutely horrible company to deal with. Nothing but bureaucratic dystopian nightmare. Won't do their job, push all the work off on you, refuse to cooperate in any way just endless circles of nothing. Honestly if a company uses them I would walk away, they aren't worth dealing with unless your offered some major money. Update: after multiple escalations a competent person from Hireright reached out and resolved the problem. Use the chat feature and just keep escalating, go beyond the escalation team, they're useless. Then request an email and a call from the someone above escalations and they will be able to get things moving. Everyone below them is either a bot or does not understand english as a first language and gives conflicting information all the while trying to deny everything.

Required details about your employee Required details about your employee singh@ hireright-service.com Is this email id and person belongs to your staff member in India? As he introduced himself as staff member of hire right. His contact no. is 07454957552

Incompetent Researchers The reps or researchers they have are incompetent. I have provided every bit of information, including telephone numbers, and W-2, I even paid for my employment verification report to send to them to help with a verification and yet they still have no clue. Researchers are still asking for the same documents they acknowledged receiving. One and a half hours of holding time to speak to someone shows they are overworked and don't care.

Highly intrusive and feels untrustworthy Highly intrusive, no explanation about why the data is needed, although it invites you to obscure unnecessary data, whatever that means. Company would not respond to enquiry because they said my email, which is the one they first contacted me on, is not verified. They contacted my current employer and then asked me for exactly the same data because the employer had not responded within a day, so that was duplication of effort.

Self Serve Background checks Like many others have said - be ready to preform your OWN background check. Isn't it their job to validate you worked where you say you did? They immediatly come back with "Cannot verify your employment". I doubt they even tried. They rather have you submit what you can to prove you worked there rather than to do their job. I supplied them with W2's and everything, still cant verify my employment. Why are they asking for companies i worked for EIGHT Years ago?! What does previous employment even have to do with a criminal background check? I already got the job... Bunch of data mining thieves.
