A standard step in someone's hiring process
Background verification is a routine part of hiring. A confirmation from you helps a former employee or student move forward without delay.
Someone listed you
A candidate named your organisation as a former employer or academic institution on their application.
An employer asked us to check
The organisation hiring them engaged OutsourceVerify to confirm the details they provided are accurate.
Your reply completes it
Confirming the facts on record lets the verification close, so the candidate's start date isn't held up.
Usually just confirmation of facts already on record
We don't ask for opinions or sensitive personal data beyond what's needed to confirm the record. A typical request covers:
| For employment | What we confirm |
|---|---|
| Dates of employment | The period the person worked with you |
| Last designation | Their job title or role at exit |
| Eligibility for rehire | Whether they could be re-employed, where your policy allows you to say |
| For education | What we confirm |
|---|---|
| Qualification awarded | The degree, diploma, or certificate obtained |
| Period of study | Enrolment and completion dates |
Responding is voluntary. If any field doesn't apply or your policy doesn't permit a particular answer, simply leave it blank, the verifier named in your email can help.
Used only for this verification, and treated as confidential
Single purpose
What you share is used only for the verification described in the request, nothing else.
Kept confidential
Your response is shared only with the organisation that engaged us to perform the check.
Retained lawfully
Records are kept in line with applicable data protection law and our published privacy policy.
Verifiable origin
The verifier who contacted you is named in the email and can confirm the request directly.
For full detail on how personal data is processed, see our privacy policy.
An operator-led background verification provider
OutsourceVerify conducts employment, education, and related background checks for organisations hiring across distributed and offshore workforces. We are operator-led, which means experienced verification practitioners run the work directly, rather than routing it through automated form-fills that stall when a record needs a real conversation.
Do you run background checks on your own hires?
If your team verifies candidates across multiple countries, you'll know how quickly a single unconfirmed record can stall a start date. See how an operator-led programme handles coverage, turnaround, and audit-defensible evidence.

Thank you for taking the time. Your confirmation helps keep hiring fair, accurate, and free of misrepresentation.
