Hello. I am Jerry L. Nielson, President of TruDiligence. Often times in my sales efforts I am asked, why should I choose TruDiligence? What sets you apart from the hundreds of other background check companies out there offering similar services? My response is always the same.
Diligence, Client Education and Overall User Experience

Jerry L. Nielson
No cost or turnaround time you might ask? In my experience, most employers indicate that providing a safe workplace and avoiding hiring liability are the primary reasons for running background checks. Unfortunately, many of these same people also state that they selected their current background check company based solely on price and turnaround time. Simply put, these two thoughts do not always support one another. Not all background checks or background check companies are the same! Even more important, cheap and fast almost always do not equal quality! Do you agree that even $1.00 is too much to pay for a background check that may do nothing to limit your liability?
I started this background check company in 1993 and since then have watched companies come and go, many of whom thought this industry was just about selling data at the lowest possible price. While that may work for some, if finding the absolute cheapest service available is your only concern, then in all honesty, TruDiligence is not the right provider for you. We call ourselves TruDiligence for a reason. Exercising due diligence in your hiring process is paramount to protecting your organization but that goal is only partially met if you employ the wrong background check provider. At TruDiligence, we will not sell you a background check just to make a sale. As our client, you will fully understand the pro’s and con’s of every search you order. You will be educated on how to interpret the results and best apply the information to address your concern. You will have direct access to a group of trained and seasoned professionals for support issues when necessary and you will feel confident in your decision to put TruDiligence at the helm of your background check program.
Why choose TruDiligence? Of course we provide everything you have come to expect as industry standards, such as:
- National Accreditation
- Competitive pricing
- Online ordering and automation
- State of the art integration capabilities
- Access to an arsenal of Instant Searches
- FCRA Compliance
However, if you’re looking for something more, then we would love to speak with you about all that TruDiligence has to offer.
Thank you and I look forward to working with you.
Jerry L. Nielson
