Case Study: Elwood Staffing achieves faster, more predictable placements with Checkr

How Elwood Staffing Places Over 125,000 Candidates a Year

Elwood Staffing, a national talent‑solutions provider with over 275 locations, faced a tightening labor market and increased competition that made speed to placement critical. Previously reliant on batch ordering and manual entry for background checks—which often meant multi‑day waits—Elwood turned to Checkr’s background‑check platform and a custom integration with Erecruit to remove friction and speed candidate throughput.

Checkr built a real‑time Erecruit integration, automated submissions and results delivery, and provided onboarding training to Elwood’s adjudicators, eliminating manual entry and email‑based updates. The result: faster, more predictable, and accurate background reports that help Elwood place over 125,000 candidates a year, shorten time from application to onboarding, and win more placements.
