Background Investigations and Due Diligence
Background Checks
A background check is a process a person or company uses to verify that an individual is who they claim to be, providing an opportunity to check and confirm the validity of someone's criminal record, education, employment history, and other activities from their past.
Employment screening
Background checks are often requested by employers on job candidates for employment screening, especially on candidates seeking a position that requires high security or a position of trust, such as in a school, courthouse, hospital, financial institution, airport, and government.
One study showed that half of all reference checks done on prospective employees differed between what the job applicant provided and what the source reported. Results of a background check typically include past employment verification, credit history, and criminal history.
The objective of background checks is to ensure the safety and security of the employees in the organization.
Screening dating partners
Dating is not without its risks. Conducting a background check on dating partners can reveal issues that can affect a relationship.
Background Investigations
A Background Investigation is the thorough examination and assessment of relevant private and public information of a chosen individual. It differs from a standard background check, which is more of a superficial identification analysis whereas a background investigation can involve careful and methodical determination of applicant records.
Background Investigations are frequently conducted to confirm information found on an employment application or resume.
Background investigations are a highly sophisticated process of identifying, confirming, and determining whether a potential candidate can aptly fill an opened position with an employer. Background checks tend to provide general information, such as academic status, credit history, criminal history, and verification of personal references.
A "Background Investigation" probes deeper by enlisting services from a background check to look closer at the details of a person's life including court rulings, financial records, asset/estate holdings, community associations, and even ancestry documentation.

Due Diligence are the processes of exercising reasonable care to avoid unnecessary exposure.
