Employment Screening, Inc. (ESI) was founded and is run by Tom McGarity, Jr. Mr. McGarity has proudly served the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department for more than 10 years as a police officer. His combination of policing experience and a degree in Criminal Justice and Law Enforcement Technology makes ESI a trusted partner to many organizations throughout the United States and abroad.
ESI is dedicated to providing its customers with efficient, professional, real time background checks obtained under the watchful eye of a seasoned law enforcement official. Why the emphasis on real time? Savvy HR managers know that popular “instant” background checks are obtained from dated records contained in static databases, some of which are updated on a yearly timetable! When it's your job to safeguard the best interests and well being of your company, co-workers and customers, using anything other than the latest and most up-to-date information available is simply an unacceptable alternative.
To obtain the most accurate and up to date criminal background screening information available, ESI employs trained and licensed professionals who visit court clerk's offices on a daily basis and manually search live records. They review hard paper logs and often pay substantial fees to access various systems often unavailable to the general public. ESI delivers a full report on all of these findings in as little as 24 hours, and this is the ONLY type of comprehensive service the U.S. court system recognizes to successfully defend an employer against a negligent hiring lawsuit.
ESI understands that it is absolutely essential to make truly informed decisions about a potential or existing employee in order to reduce initial hiring costs, increase productivity, and limit liability within your company. Our services include criminal background checks, driving histories, social security number traces, registered sex offender checks, employee credit checks, fingerprinting and both ten and thirteen panel pre-employment and random drug testing - all at very competitive price points.
ESI takes great pride in relieving most of the specific pressures involved with diligently and comprehensively researching a person's criminal history. Whether you are an individual or an Human Resources manager responsible for hiring hundreds or even thousands of employees per year, our friendly customer service staff and vast network of professional research associates will help you, your employees, and your customers obtain the protection and peace of mind required of modern day businesses. Now that you know a little more about us, we would be honored if you would provide us the opportunity to make our services available to you.
Thank you for your time, and for considering Employment Screening, Incorporated
