“We sent out background checks Wednesday afternoon, by Thursday morning they came back complete and I could hand a laptop to the new person and say congrats. It’s that turnaround for a new joiner that is incredible”

Background check experience

Challenges

The Dot Collective was challenged with how to get people onboarded, checked and started in the fast turnaround time that they needed. The entire process was manual and time consuming, and gave them no assurance they'd done it all correctly. The amount of time taken to process background checks was different for every new hire depending on their documentation and staff capabilities at the time. The whole process ran the risk of human error and not adhering to clients' compliance standards.

Solution

With Zinc, The Dot Collective's hiring process transformed in ways they didn't believe was possible. They were able to go from first interview to recruited person in 3 and a half days due to the speed of Zinc’s turnaround times. They have been able to continue accelerating their hiring at the rate they need to with confidence and certainty that all their employee information is stored in a unified and secure platform.
