FAQ

With our network of global partners and integrations with popular hiring platforms, Certn offers faster domestic and international criminal record checks so you can make more informed decisions whether you’re hiring locally, remotely, or abroad. Criminal record checks search national and local records to identify reportable criminal records associated with your candidates.
The availability and disclosure of criminal records varies by jurisdiction. Some jurisdictions have restrictions on the types of convictions that can be reported after a certain period or based on the severity of the offence.
Turnaround times vary based on the jurisdiction and number and/or location of possible records.

The time it takes to complete any type of background check, criminal or otherwise, varies depending on factors such as the type of information being verified, the responsiveness of the sources and databases, and the efficiency of the screening process. For example, a criminal record check can typically be completed within a few days to a week, assuming the information is readily available and the sources respond promptly.

Certn's identity verification uses facial recognition to match a selfie in real-time with identification documents. The report will confirm the name, date of birth, address, document type, issuing country and expiry date of their identification documents.
