How we work
A database snapshot is rarely enough. Every Quality Screening Reports screen is handled by a dedicated specialist and signed off by a person before it reaches you.
An investigative approach, not just a database lookup
Built on the proven operation of our parent company, Quality Credit Reporting, we take an investigative approach to employment screening. Rather than returning a raw database snapshot, every order is worked by an experienced specialist who obtains, verifies and reviews the findings, so the report you receive is one you can act on with confidence.
It’s the speed of a modern platform with the rigour of an established North American screening company: flexible packages, transparent pricing, and a person accountable for every result.
- A dedicated specialist on every order
- Human review and sign-off, always
- North American data residency
- Consent captured up front
From order to signed-off report
Five steps, one accountable team. Here’s what happens after you place an order.
- 1
Place your order
Choose a package or build a custom screen from individual checks. Enter the candidate's details and upload their ID and signed consent, captured before any search begins.
- 2
A dedicated specialist takes it on
Your order is assigned to an experienced screening specialist who runs the required searches across trusted sources: criminal record, employment, education, references and more.
- 3
We compile and cross-check
Findings are assembled into a single, structured report and checked against the candidate's stated history. Anything uncertain or inconsistent is flagged for a closer look.
- 4
Reviewed and signed off
Every report is reviewed by a specialist before it's released, and any flagged item is hand-verified. Nothing reaches you unchecked.
- 5

Questions about the process
How screening runs, who's behind it, and what candidates can expect.
- How does the background screening process work?
- You place an order and upload the candidate's ID and signed consent. A dedicated screening specialist then runs the required searches, compiles and cross-checks the findings, and reviews and signs off on the report before it's released to you, usually within the same day to 48 hours.
- Is Quality Screening Reports legitimate?
- Yes. Quality Screening Reports is the employment-screening arm of Quality Credit Reporting (QCR), a North American company that has been handling sensitive personal data under applicable privacy law since 1992. Every report is run and signed off by a trained screening specialist, signed candidate consent is captured before any search begins, and candidate data is hosted within North America.
- Who owns Quality Screening Reports?
- Quality Screening Reports is owned and operated by Quality Credit Reporting (QCR), an established North American operation running since 1992. Rather than building screening from scratch, Quality Screening Reports extends QCR's proven processes and compliance experience to employment background checks.
- How is Quality Screening Reports different from an instant database check?
- Instant database tools return a raw, unverified snapshot. Quality Screening Reports takes an investigative approach: every check is obtained and verified, discrepancies are flagged, and a trained specialist reviews and signs off on each report. The result is accuracy you can act on and defend.
- Why did I receive a background-check request?
- An employer you've applied to (or already work for) has asked Quality Screening Reports to verify parts of your history as a step in their hiring process: typically identity, criminal record, employment, education or references. No search runs until you've provided signed consent, and you can contact us or the employer with any questions about the request.
- What information will I be asked to provide?
- Government-issued photo ID and signed consent, plus the details the ordered checks require: typically your legal name, date of birth, address history, and employment or education history. You're only asked for what the specific checks on your order actually need.
- Is candidate consent required?
- Yes. Signed candidate consent is captured against every order before any search runs, and an audit-ready record is kept on file. Screening is handled under applicable privacy law throughout.
- How is my information protected?
- Candidate data is hosted within North America in a secure region. Sensitive documents are encrypted, access is limited by role, and a full audit trail is kept on every report. The entire process is handled under applicable privacy law.
- Do you conduct checks in Canada and the US?
- Yes. Quality Screening Reports screens candidates for employers in both Canada and the United States, including candidates with history on either side of the border, and candidate data stays hosted within North America throughout.
- What happens if a check finds something?
- Any finding or inconsistency is flagged and hand-verified before the report is released, then highlighted clearly in the final report with an at-a-glance assessment. You decide how to weigh it. We provide the verified facts; the hiring decision stays yours.
- How do I receive the completed report?
- You view the finished report on-screen in the portal and download a PDF. A clear summary tells you whether the screen is clear or needs attention, with every finding highlighted.
