If so, what company did you purchase your equipment from? Have you noticed a benefit from not utilizing an outside source? Also, is anyone utilizing any of the following in their background checks for employment candidates: * Social Media inquiries * Public records request for personnel files from previous employers * Authorization to release personnel files from previous private sector employers Thank You!
