Sterling HireChecker:
a powerful tool to uncover missed placements
During a beta test comparing HireChecker with a client’s manual backdoor hire checking process, the system successfully identified all the cases found by the client—plus two additional engagements.
While the client’s manual process took six full days to complete, HireChecker delivered results in just a fraction of the time, demonstrating its efficiency and accuracy in detecting potential backdoor hires.

What is HireChecker?
HireChecker is a specialised investigative tool developed by Sterling to detect backdoor hires – instances where a candidate is hired without informing or compensating the recruitment agency that introduced them.
How does HireChecker identify backdoor hires?
It uses advanced data-matching technology to search for evidence of engagements across job boards, LinkedIn, and internal databases. It then cross-references this data against your candidate submissions to flag backdoor placements.
What data is required to use HireChecker?
You simply provide us with a candidate name and the company you introduced them to. This can be pulled effortlessly from your CRM. HireChecker securely compares this information against publicly available data from multiple sources.
Is HireChecker compliant with data protection laws?
Yes. HireChecker is fully GDPR-compliant and built with data privacy in mind. It uses encrypted systems and only processes data necessary to identify potential infringements.
Can HireChecker integrate with our existing CRM systems?
It can be connected via API or used as a stand-alone solution. Integration is straightforward and designed to align with most recruitment CRM platforms.Â
HireChecker doesn’t integrate with CRM systems. Due to data privacy we check only the records (candidate name and the company you introduced them to) you share with us.
What happens when a backdoor hire is detected?
You receive a detailed report showing itemised evidence confirming an engagement. Sterling can also assist with communication or legal recovery if you choose to pursue the case.
How accurate is HireChecker in identifying back door hires?
HireChecker has a high accuracy rate due to its multi-source verification logic. It’s specifically built to minimise false positives and only flag valid, confirmed matches.
Can HireChecker be used internationally?
Yes. It works across global hiring markets and is particularly valuable for agencies operating across multiple countries and industries.
How often should we run checks using HireChecker?
Yes. It works across global hiring markets and is particularly valuable for agencies operating across multiple countries and industries.
What are the benefits of using HireChecker compared to manual checks?
HireChecker is faster, more accurate, and significantly more scalable than manual tracking. It uncovers lost revenue that would otherwise go unnoticed, protecting the value of your work.
