Here is what ScreenNow® customers have to say This list of ScreenNow testimonials has been provided by ChoicePoint®. Inclusion does not imply that each organization is insured by Church Mutual. Waynesboro, VA "We have used ScreenNow for about 18 months to complete criminal record background checks on each finalist for all of our positions before offering employment. A long time volunteer in one of our senior centers was selected as a finalist as Director of that center. On the employment application, she said she had never been convicted of a crime. The ScreenNow check revealed five pages of felony convictions including theft from a 80-year-old in her care. With the ScreenNow report in hand, she denied she had been convicted of any crimes. When presented with the report, she said it was all a misunderstanding. Needless to say, we did not hire her, and we immediately dismissed her as a volunteer in our senior center. We are now considering using ScreenNow to check the backgrounds of all of our regular volunteers. Thanks ScreenNow." Paul A.
