Stand out from other communities and demonstrate your commitment to hiring quality law enforcement professionals while minimizing your community’s risk.
Law Enforcement Speaks
Law Enforcement Officers speak about the power of Guardian and what it means for today’s hiring challenges.
"As more and more agencies get involved with Guardian as a platform, we're gonna find that the hiring process is not just more efficient, but we're going to have a more deeply vetted candidate pool."
“The Guardian platform and its host of services represents a giant leap forward in our ability to make sure we are only hiring the best people,” said Keith Summey, Mayor of North Charleston. “Our residents can take comfort in knowing that rebuilding public trust is a keystone of our department. We are doing what we can to put tangible, proven systems in place.”
MITIGATE YOUR RISK
Any representative of your community can put you at risk and it only takes ONE instance to destroy the community’s trust.
Affordable Technology
Mitigate risk by utilizing affordable background and ongoing screening technologies to comprehensively and continually analyze current law enforcement professionals in your agencies and vet future applicants to ensure quality hires.
Reduce Lawsuits
Reduce lawsuits (and costs incurred by lawsuits) by utilizing technology that provides better vetting practices, diverse hiring information, and social media activity.
Gain Visibility
Current hiring processes leave a large blindspot for your agency’s background unit.
There is no effective way to know what information applicants are providing to other agencies to which they apply...or even where they applied for that matter. Guardian has solved this problem by creating the National Applicant Information Center (NAIC), the nation's first centralized database that provides agencies with a level of applicant visibility they’ve never had before.
Agencies Applied To
Though applicant’s are asked to provide other agencies they have applied to, the fact is some refrain from disclosing an agency that disqualified them during the background process. With Guardian, you gain visibility to other agencies the applicant has applied to.
Hiring Statistics
Reports provide critical hiring data such as the percentage of applicants being hired or disqualified compared to the total applicant pool. Compare demographic data (race, gender, ethnicity, nationality) to ensure fair and impartial hiring practices are being adhered to.
Social Media activity
Advanced machine learning technology easily grabs applicant info on popular social media sites, saving staff hours of searching. Special law enforcement searches identify racism, extremism, gang-activity, violence, derogatory comments towards police, and other potentially problematic behavior.
Past Answers Supplied
Applicants may alter answers when applying to multiple agencies in an attempt to get hired. Guardian tracks all answers supplied to the various agencies and provides investigators with a history of any and all changes.
Efficient Spending
Agencies have reported cutting their investigation times by 50% or more.
In today’s times, budget spending is tight for agencies. They are being asked to retain the same output, with less funds. The utilization of effective technology solutions can help automate tasks and simplify processes, allowing for better efficiency.
FREE TRIAGE
Guardian’s free Triage Center allows agency personnel to quickly assess an applicant’s suitability by automatically flagging potential disqualifying issues BEFORE spending valuable labor resources that may uncover hiring problems later in the investigation.
Save Time
Many parts of the investigation process are repetitive and/or time-consuming. Guardian automates repetitive tasks, simplifies data collection, and generates a final report that can be shared with commanding offers for approval.
Easy
Guardian doesn’t require any special hardware to be purchased and can be accessed from virtually anywhere. There are no upfront fees, no training fees, no installation costs, no long-term contract or commitment, and all records are stored electronically.
SECURE & compliant
Guardian understands the sensitivity of the information that is collected from applicants, references, and other sources during the course of an investigation. As such, security is of high importance for the safety of applicants and our future officers.
