Checkr integration

What can you do with a Dado-Checkr integration?

The Dado <> Checkr Integration allows you to enables Dado to automatically initiate a background check, and auto-completes when the assignee has provided the necessary information. The status of this background check (and any sub-checks) will be synced to the Dado platform and stored on the user profile, as well as synced out to other systems.
