How Anika verifies your candidates

From document collection to verified report — fast, thorough, and fully automated.

01

Candidate advances

When a candidate passes the interview stage and is shortlisted for final consideration, Anika automatically initiates the background verification process.

02

Documents collected

Candidates receive a secure link to upload ID documents, employment records, and education certificates. The process is mobile-friendly and takes under 5 minutes.

03

Automated checks run

Anika verifies identity, employment history, education credentials, professional references, and criminal records across multiple databases simultaneously.

04

Report delivered

A clear verification report is delivered with pass/fail status for each check, flagged inconsistencies, and supporting evidence. All before the candidate reaches your final round.

5 layers of verification

Every claim a candidate makes gets verified against independent sources. Nothing slips through.

Identity verification

Government ID validation, photo matching against interview footage, and address verification to confirm the candidate is who they claim to be.

Employment history

Previous employer verification including job titles, dates of employment, and reasons for leaving. Gaps and inconsistencies are highlighted automatically.

Education credentials

Degree verification, institution accreditation checks, and graduation date confirmation. Fake degrees and inflated credentials get caught.

Criminal record check

Searches across national and regional criminal databases based on the candidate's jurisdiction. Results are categorized by relevance to the role.

Professional references

Automated outreach to listed references with structured verification questions. Responses are compiled and summarized in the final report.

Document authenticity

AI-powered analysis of uploaded documents for signs of tampering, forgery, or manipulation. Metadata, formatting, and content are all verified.

Common questions

Is background verification mandatory for all candidates?

No. You choose when to trigger verification — after interviews, before offer, or at any stage. You can also configure it per role: some positions may need full checks, others just identity verification.

How does Anika handle international candidates?

Anika supports verification across 190+ countries with local database access. For regions with limited digital records, she flags what could and couldn't be verified with clear explanations.

What happens when a check fails?

Failed checks are flagged with specific details — which claim was inconsistent, what the verified data shows, and the severity level. Your team decides how to proceed with full context.

Is candidate data secure?

All documents are encrypted in transit and at rest. Data is processed in compliance with GDPR, SOC 2, and local data privacy regulations. Candidates can request data deletion at any time.

Never hire on blind trust again

Verify every claim before making an offer. Anika handles the checks while you focus on choosing the right candidate.
