HireRight runs a unified global screening platform that spans more than 200 countries and territories and integrates with more than 70 applicant tracking systems, including Dayforce, Greenhouse, iCIMS, Oracle, Paychex, SmartRecruiters, UKG, and Workday. Its criminal record reach combines in-house researchers with on-the-ground researchers across global jurisdictions.
