I've never seen HR use data brokers. I would think that could open them to a lot of risk, finding out things that aren't legal to know about someone before saying yes. All of mine have used actual background check agencies
The background check agency probably uses data brokers, though. They would just only pass along what they are allowed to.
Thank you for the reply:)
If one isn't privy to those records, there's little risk?
Can you rephrase the question?
Who's going to know what HR had in their files, other than HR and whomever instituted a policy requiring things in HR files?
