Intelius’ Fine Screens for Job Hunters
Comments Off
Christened after the information services it provides, Intelius trades public records, specifically those containing personal information. If the critical acclaim is any indication, it is also one of the best employment screening providers in the country.
Since 2007, Workforce Management magazine has listed Intelius as the country’s #1 provider of employment screening services. Likewise, HRO Today favorably reviewed the company’s employment screening capacity, saying that Intelius has the second-best solutions in the entire US.
Never one to rest on its laurels, Intelius has constantly looked for ways to deliver its services better. To its employment screens, the company has added behavioral assessment programs and skills tests. The former measures job seekers’ attitudes and traits, while the latter reckons their knowledge, competency, and performance.
Whereas these solutions are designed for employers, Intelius has a longer line of services for laymen. They are more susceptible to unsolicited advances and therefore more dependent on intelligences.
From the get-go, Intelius’ intelligences have always been the personal kind. They give insights only to the extent that it sheds light on other people, their idiosyncrasies and their tendencies. In any of Intellius’ services, users may be faced with previously unknown information about the people they know, e.g. their felonies and sexual offenses. Such services have in effect given Intelius the Stevie Award for Best New Company in 2006.
Moreover, due to Intelius’ formidable revenues since 2006, Inc. Magazine has recognized the private company as among the 500 fastest-growing in the nation. Deloitte & Touche even estimated Intellius as the 127th fastest-growing technological company in North America.
It is currently headquartered in Bellevue, Washington, where it is headed by founder Naveen Jain. The firm belongs to the fastest-growing cadre of privately held businesses in the state, according to the Puget Sound Business Journal and Washington CEO Magazine.
