Why use Dots360 for background Checks?

DOTS Africa. What's in a name?

Although we thought the concept of 'connecting the dots' was a clever marketing play on words (and one that speaks specifically to background checks and knowing your employee), there is a little bit more to our name:

D - Digital
O - On-demand
T - Trustworthy
S - Screening

There you have it.
Nothing too complicated, just like our platform.

Here's a little of our ‘backstory’ so you can better ‘connect the dots’...

After doing 'our time' and gaining valuable experience in the Talent Acquisition industry, we are familiar with the unique pain points associated with candidate sourcing and within the hiring process. Since 2016, we have ploughed that specialist knowledge into all our innovative Dots360 background screening and credit check solutions.

BUILDING THE TRUST ECONOMY ONE BACKGROUND CHECK AT AT TIME

Your employer brand is built and strengthened on those you hire. Background checks are your only safety net.

From credit checks, identity or qualification verifications and work permits to criminal record and employment background screening - and any other check in between - our Dots Africa’s cutting-edge background screening solutions and verification checks will help you enhance your risk management.
