Overview

With manual admin, too-long turnaround times, and clunky platforms, background checks have been stuck in the past for too long. Zinc’s here to change that with lightning-fast results, automation-first checks and a platform you’ll actually enjoy using.

You have better things to do than spending hours of the day on background checking admin. Zinc takes it off your plate — from document collection to chasing references — and provides real-time updates along the way. Build your own check packages or use our pre-built ones to make sure you’re hiring with confidence and staying compliant across any of the [employeeCountryCount] countries we support.

Once you’ve sent your checks, Zinc helps you put your best foot forward. Our mobile-first platform makes it easy for candidates to complete their checks quickly and securely re-use their information. If they’ve got questions, they can hop on a live chat with our London-based support team instead of clogging up your inbox.

When results are ready, they’ll get sent to your Zinc dashboard or directly to your integrated HRIS or ATS. Zinc supports integrations across your HR tech stack, including BambooHR.

Elevate candidate experience

Unlike traditional background check companies, Zinc offers a dedicated candidate dashboard for candidates to own, view, and reuse their data. This is how we’ve created an outstanding candidate experience rated at 4.8 out of 5.

Save time

By automating follow-ups and rapidly processing verifications, Zinc makes the process efficient, reducing time-to-hire from weeks to days.

Seamless integration

Zinc's one-click solution lets you fully integrate background checking into BambooHR, and expand your capabilities globally and supercharging your hiring.

Key Differentiators

Zinc supports background checks for international teams, including companies that do not have a U.S. legal entity. Whether you are hiring in North America, EMEA, APAC or across multiple regions at once, Zinc enables compliant, end-to-end background screening without the need to set up a U.S. presence.

Integration

How it works

Configuring BambooHR with Zinc integration streamlines the process of managing employee background checks. By setting up custom fields in BambooHR and authenticating Zinc, you can seamlessly manage and track background check details directly within your HR platform. Set up is just 5 minutes.

How to Install:

Set up in under 5 minutes. The integration with Bamboo will transfer status of the check, date checked, type of check, and Zinc report link. The report PDF is automatically sent to the Zinc Background checks folder in BambooHR.

This is the identifying field for the integration. The two systems Employee #/ID must match. Zinc looks up the Employee ID using the workerEmail every time a sync is triggered.
