We’re excited to unveil a powerful addition to our verification suite this month: Pre-Hiring BGV — an end-to-end background verification solution built specifically for HR and Talent Acquisition teams.
As hiring volumes increase and timelines compress, background verification has quietly become one of the biggest bottlenecks in the recruitment lifecycle. Manual checks, fragmented vendors, long turnaround times, and post-offer surprises often delay onboarding and damage candidate experience. Pre-Hiring BGV is designed to fix this by shifting verification earlier in the funnel, where it creates the most leverage.
With real-time, API-driven checks, the module helps teams screen candidates with confidence before offers are rolled out—reducing risk, effort, and downstream rework.
Introducing Pre-Hiring BGV
Faster, smarter, and cost-effective background verification for modern hiring workflows
Pre-Hiring BGV enables HR and TA teams to conduct early-stage background checks as soon as a candidate clears initial screening. Instead of waiting until after the offer stage, teams can validate critical information upfront—saving time, cost, and operational overhead.
Built on Tartan’s verification infrastructure, the module uses 250+ authoritative data sources and real-time government-backed APIs to flag discrepancies instantly and surface verified signals that hiring managers can trust.
Whether you’re hiring at scale, onboarding contractual staff, or filling compliance-sensitive roles, Pre-Hiring BGV ensures that verification does not slow hiring down—or compromise on accuracy.
How It Works
