* Online Application System
Human Resource Advantage has available to our clients an online application system through the Internet called T/E Screener. Our clients who wish to take advantage of this feature are assigned a Company ID, User ID and Passwords for each employee entrusted with applicant information. Once signed into the system, clients can submit applications, check on the status of pending searches, and print completed reports. Sensitive information transmitted between the browser and the application is transmitted under the SSL protocol, so all credit and application information is encrypted. Credit application data are transmitted from ASP location to the credit repositories via a Virtual Private Network in which security is enable through the use of a private circuit. This approach is consistent with credit bureau security guidelines.
