About Good Egg

Changing the way people view background checks, one positive experience at a time.

People's reactions to the word "background check" can vary widely. For job applicants, background checks can spark anxiety, frustration, and confusion. Many in HR see background checks as simply another admin box to check off—a "necessary evil," if you will.

At Good Egg, our very reason for existence is to challenge these notions and show everyone that there is a better, happier way to screen candidates and monitor employees, all in an effort to create a safer, more productive workforce.

LET US SHOW YOU WHAT WE'RE ALL ABOUT!

THE GOOD EGG PHILOSOPHY

Our philosophy is simple: when it comes to the people you hire, character matters. After all, you want a safe, productive workforce filled with people who reflect your company's values, right? A modern approach to employee screening can help you achieve exactly that.

This modern approach includes looking at a person's past, present, and future behaviors. We call it the Good Egg Screening Continuum, but in reality, it's just common sense.

Learn more about the Screening Continuum.

OUR HISTORY

In 2017, our parent company—Foley Services—had a brilliant idea. Why not leverage Foley's 30 years of experience in the screening and compliance of regulated drivers and apply it to general employment purposes? And why not overhaul the background check process even further so that it not only screens for past behavior, but also present and future behaviors? And thus, Good Egg was born. Today, Good Egg meets the background check needs of customers in a wide range of industries. Backed by Foley, we deliver superior customer service and compliant screening services that help companies hire more good eggs, faster.

WHO WE ARE, WHY WE'RE HERE

geektastic

We are geektastic + disruptive.
The screening industry's gotten stale. It's a mature market, full of players beholden to the status quo. Sure, many of these big players claim to be fans of innovation. But in reality? Not so much. At Good Egg, we're always looking for new ways to improve the overall background check process. Our job is to bring the best technology to this process so that HR can hire more good eggs faster while candidates can have an awesome experience.

Learn more about the technology that sets us apart, like candidate text messaging.

 

best-reviewed

We strive to be the best-reviewed background check company in the galaxy.
And not because we simply love seeing five-star reviews. We WANT everyone—your HR department and your candidates—to enjoy every interaction that they have with us. Yes, technology is important. But it will never replace the human touch. And that's another thing that sets us apart from our competitors: we have real, live human beings answering calls, emails, and texts.

working-together

We're a young company filled with deep expertise + fresh ideas.
Sure, Good Egg—the company—is younger compared to the big guys. But our bench is deep with veteran talent. Our team includes people who've been in the background check industry for years as well as the next generation of thinkers. The best part? Everyone at Good Egg loves working together, and everyone loves delivering exceptional experiences to each and every customer.

PBSA-CERTIFIED FOR ADDED PEACE OF MIND

It's easy for a company to wax poetic on its "About Us" or "Why Us" pages, but in the background check industry, accreditation by the Professional Background Screening Association is the gold standard—a gold standard that Good Egg has reached and maintains.

ABOUT THE GOOD EGG LOGO

The Good Egg Screening Continuum inspired our logo. We purposely designed the infinity symbol into the logo to reinforce the concept that past, present, and future are all intertwined—it's never a straight line, especially when it comes to humans and human behaviors.
