What the Employment Verification (Employer Confirmation) API does

This is an asynchronous check. Submit the candidate's consent, employment details and documents; the request is processed by Profiden's verification team and the API reports each status change until the employer's confirmation is recorded.

Consent is part of the contract

The candidate authorises Profiden to contact previous employers; the consent record accompanies every request.

Benefits of the Employment Verification (Employer Confirmation) API
