Fraud solutions for staffing
Feel confident you’re placing qualified candidates with real-time ID verification, robust credential checks, and expansive criminal screenings.
Advanced ID verification for identify fraud
More job seekers are using stolen or borrowed IDs and synthetic identities, which blend real and fake data. Now you can match live selfies to IDs in real-time with Advanced ID verification.
You’ll know instantly whether a candidate is who they claim to be. Our AI-powered technology spots fake IDs and photos easily missed by human review.
Advanced ID verification capabilities
- Verify the authenticity of government-issued IDs.
- Detect real-time “live selfies” to prevent the use of fake photos (e.g., AI selfies).
- Maintain full compliance with SOC 2 and HIPAA requirements for using candidate data.
- Eliminate manual steps such as scanning and emailing IDs.
Verifications for resume and credential fraud
Misrepresenting or making up resume details is common. Nearly 70% of applicants admit to falsifying parts of resumes.
With KarmaCheck, you can confirm a candidate’s education, employment, licenses, and certificates without adding to your team’s workload. Our approach uses database checks, paid sources, and outreach to issuing authorities if needed.
Comprehensive verification capabilities

Expansive checks for criminal history concealment
Concealing or omitting past criminal offenses can occur in applications, interviews, or background checks.
