Case Study: Randstad Canada achieves enhanced security and faster, higher-quality reference checks with Checkster

How Randstad Canada mastered security and verification

Randstad Canada, the country’s leading integrated staffing, recruitment and HR services firm, faced a major pain point in manual reference checking: slow processing, weak verification and the risk of dangerous hiring mistakes. The volume of references extended timelines for candidates and recruiters and left room for undetected fraud.

By adopting Checkster’s automated reference-checking and ten-level fraud detection, Randstad streamlined the process, improved report quality and lifted recruiter confidence. Checkster flagged a fraudulent candidate who had passed a standard background check, preventing a placement and prompting police action; overall the tool delivered stronger security and verification, faster turnaround, and clearer, more useful feedback for hiring decisions.
