    • Applicant Tracking Software

      Per Mar offers clients the ability to integrate applicant tracking software into our online background check platform, which enables you to see candidates and request background checks in one place.

      This will save you time, increase your efficiency, and streamline your hiring and onboarding process. Choose from several ATS platforms or a preferred platform to create an all-inclusive hiring experience.

    • Motor Vehicle Reports

      Ensure safety with Motor Vehicle Reports (MVRs). Per Mar simplifies the process of keeping your MVRs current. Issued by the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV), MVRs provide a detailed look at an individual’s driving history, including traffic violations, suspensions, and revocations.

      This information is crucial for any business that relies on employees to drive, whether occasionally or regularly. By keeping MVRs up-to-date, you can promote safety and ensure compliance with regulations.
