I requested a criminal background screening, and I received results. How do I know whether or not this is my applicant?

Verify all of the information given on the screening result, and compare it to the information your applicant has given to you. Most criminal background results will come back with a physical description, and some even result in photos. Also, most results will provide the age of the person - check that against your applicant's birthday and see if there's a match. Accurate screening requires some analysis, and it's important to be thorough when examining the details.
