How to add re-screenings

Rescreening is the process of repeating background checks on candidates after their initial screening. You can schedule these checks to run automatically at regular intervals, helping you keep candidate records up to date and maintain ongoing compliance. 

Option A: Individual Candidate Re-screening

1. Navigate to the Candidates tab in the client portal

2. Find the candidate or employee you want to re-screen, open the Actions dropdown menu, and click Add re-screening.

3. Under Set re-screening configurations:

• Select the Criteria or Checks to include in the re-screening.
• Confirm the candidate's active work email address.
• Choose when the re-screening should start (for example, Right now or On the date of...).
• Select the Repeat frequency and configure the end conditions (for example, stop on a specific date or after a specified number of occurrences).

4. Click Submit re-screening. A tracking marker will immediately appear on the candidate's profile.

 

Option B: Bulk Re-screening via CSV

For larger teams, clients can initiate re-screenings for multiple candidates at the same time:

1. Click Re-screen candidates on the Candidates page.

2. Upload a CSV file containing the details of multiple employees. A downloadable template is available to help you format the file correctly.

3. Review and confirm the candidate information.

4. Select the checks, configure the re-screening frequency, and click Submit to launch re-screening for all selected candidates simultaneously.

Additional: Disable re-screenings for existing candidates

You have the option to deactivate re-screenings at any time on the Candidates page.

Note: For the additional option, I couldn't find a way to disable it in the portal.

Notes

• Rescreening is only available for candidates who have previously completed a background screening through the Veremark platform. If the candidate has not been screened through Veremark before, you'll need to place a new background screening request first. Once the initial screening has been completed, you can then set up rescreening for that candidate.
• Bulk rescreening requests may take some time to appear on the platform. If you're placing a bulk rescreening request for a large number of candidates, it may take a few hours for the request to be processed and become visible in your account. If you've scheduled rescreening for a future date, the request will be created and processed on the selected date.
