Summary

At Checkr, they aim to make fair chance hiring easier through more meaningful engagement with candidates. They developed Candidate Stories, a tool that allows individuals to share context about themselves and their circumstances directly with customers through the Checkr's Candidate Portal. This helps businesses protect their business with compliant practices, support the fair chance movement, increase their pool of qualified candidates, and improve their hiring processes. By using Candidate Stories, companies can set up position-specific matrices, filter out irrelevant records, equip their adjudication team with training and a documented process, consistently reevaluate and improve their matrix and processes, and stay compliant while giving everyone a fair chance at employment.
