Giant Screening

What Giant Screening is

Giant Screening is a web-based background screening service for employers and recruitment agencies, with checks spanning employment and education history, criminal records, identity, social media, and right to work. Giant says it serves clients in over 60 countries and offers screening coverage in over 220. With a candidate’s consent, its HMRC-connected Instant Activity Verification can return as much as five years of employment information, including employer names and start and end dates. UK criminal checks include DBS, Disclosure Scotland, and Access NI. Right-to-work options include document validation and facial recognition, physical checks, and online checks using a share code. Social media screening searches over 10,000 public online sources, with reports possible in as little as 24 hours. Screening can start automatically from a connected recruitment platform, with results returned to the ATS. Mobile-enabled onboarding supports information capture, e-signatures, and company-branded documents. Pricing is available on request; Giant lists no minimum spend and describes the service as fully managed.
