Criterion HCM, a leading provider of modern HR Management solutions designed for mid-sized organizations, announced a strategic partnership with Verified Credentials, a premier background screening provider. The integration embeds Verified Credentials’ background check capabilities directly into Criterion’s unified HCM platform, streamlining the hiring process and enhancing compliance for HR teams.
This collaboration reinforces Criterion’s commitment to delivering a cohesive, user-centric experience that eliminates complexity and empowers HR professionals to focus on what matters most—people.
“At Criterion, we believe technology should work for the user, not the other way around,” said Sunil Reddy, Chief Executive Officer of Criterion. “Our partnership with Verified Credentials brings high-quality background screening into our platform’s native workflow, ensuring a seamless and compliant hiring experience from start to finish.”
A Fully Integrated Experience
Unlike other HCM systems built through acquisitions and bolt-on tools, Criterion’s platform is unified by design. The integration with Verified Credentials reflects this architectural integrity, allowing users to initiate, track, and receive background check results directly within Criterion’s Applicant Tracking System (ATS)—eliminating redundant data entry and minimizing manual effort.

Verified Credentials has been recognized by HRO Today’s Baker’s Dozen as a top provider for mid-sized businesses. Now, Criterion clients can leverage that expertise directly within their HCM ecosystem, receiving screening results in as little as one to three days.

Support is entirely U.S.-based – not offshored – and backed by proven client experience that consistently exceed industry benchmarks, including response times under one business hour for email support and calls answered in three rings or less by live support.
“Verified Credentials shares our passion for exceptional customer service and operational simplicity,” said Kuhn. “Together, we’re helping clients hire smarter, faster, and with greater confidence.”
“Our team understands the unique needs of mid-sized organizations – balancing enterprise-level compliance with hands-on, personal service,” said Verified Credentials Director of Strategic Alliances, Louise Walker. “Through this partnership, Criterion clients gain not just seamless background screening technology, but also a trusted partner committed to supporting them every step of the way.”
