The partnership gives human resources professionals and global organizations the benefits of having more efficient integrated talent management and employment screening capabilities.

Sterling is one of Kenexa's preferred background screening partners, and the two companies have seamlessly incorporated Sterling's solutions and industry-leading employment screening management technology into Kenexa 2x BrassRing™ and Kenexa 2x Recruit™. Using a single login, Kenexa users can now access a system that creates increased productivity, greater cost savings and an improved candidate experience.

Derek Bluestone, vice president, product marketing, Kenexa, commented, "Our continued partnership with Sterling streamlines the talent management process by providing a single source access to candidate background information. Employment background checks are an integral part of a robust talent management strategy to ensure that the highest quality team is in place. Incorporating Sterling's background check solution into our 2x Integrated Talent Management solution helps Kenexa's customers improve productivity, quality and customer satisfaction by identifying the best individuals for each job."

Human resources professionals will experience greater day-to-day efficiency with this integration. Features include the auto-population of data between the Kenexa and Sterling systems, eliminating data entry and potential for human error. Customers will have access to customized "Pass/Fail" adjudication management and completed background screening results within the Kenexa 2x Integrated Talent Management solution. Additionally, Sterling's patented CourtDirect technology allows direct retrieval of primary source data in jurisdictions across the United States to ensure criminal background check results in record time.
