Once again, Employment Background Investigations (EBI) has the honor of being recognized in HRO Today magazine’s Pre-employment Screening Baker’s Dozen Customer Satisfaction Survey.  This is our sixth time appearing on this exclusive list of the top thirteen pre-employment screening providers. By far the most prestigious survey of its kind, the annual Baker’s Dozen rankings are completely based on customer survey results and quantitative rankings. For 2013, 587 survey respondents answered 30 questions, evaluating firms on their diversity of services offered, geographic reach of the company, and overall quality of service.

On October 5, 2013 the staff at Employment Background Investigations (EBI) laced up their running shoes and headed to Baltimore’s Inner Harbor to participate in the American Diabetes Association’s 2013 Step Out: Walk to Stop Diabetes 5k (3 miles) walk.  Participation in this event has become an annual tradition at EBI.  One of 120 such walks held annually across the country, this event is more than good exercise; it’s a great way to raise awareness, promote healthy living, and raise money to fund educational outreach, advocacy efforts and critical research that will ultimately stop diabetes once and for all.

The National Association of Professional Background Screeners (NAPBS) was incorporated as a non-profit corporation in 2003 to serve as the voice of the background screening industry.
