Once an account has been established, the applicant should:

Log in to Hire Right, click on the "New Order" button and follow the provided instructions.

To identify individuals who require background checks, names and email addresses can be submitted within the Hire Right order form

- or -

spreadsheets containing the names and email addresses can be attached to the form as part of a batch request. A template spreadsheet can be downloaded.

Individuals identified for background checks will be contacted by Hire Right and asked to provide necessary information.
