We believe in transparency for candidates and true respect for privacy in background checking.
Our Story:
We believe in a fairer, more transparent process. One which is quick, easy, and productive for every party. A process enabling candidates to own their data, and companies to access the unbiased insights they need.
Zinc’s founding team have spent years in talent and HRTech. We saw a field plagued with inefficiency, prejudice and a lack of transparency. We first sought to solve the burden of referencing, then sought to tackle the broader category of background checking.
Our Mission:
Change the way people prove their work identity. Proud to be an Award-Winning Workplace!
