As the trusted recruitment partner to Canada’s nonprofit sector, CharityVillage is excited to announce new screening services to assist organizations when recruiting staff and volunteers. In partnership with ModoHR Technologies Inc (“ModoHR”), CharityVillage will now offer the ability for nonprofits and charities to process background searches on ModoHR’s ScreeningCanadaTM web application, Canada’s most compliant and technologically advanced Canadian background screening platform.

Over CharityVillage’s 25-year history, we have worked hard to help nonprofits and charities efficiently use technology to modernize and streamline their recruitment efforts. With the introduction of video pre-screening and video interviewing last year, CharityVillage is now pleased to offer end-to-end recruitment support to organizations, from job and volunteer postings to interviewing to background screening and reference checks.

“We pride ourselves at CharityVillage with bringing the most up-to-date, user friendly and cost-effective recruitment services to the nonprofit sector.” says Mary Barroll, General Counsel and Vice President of Media Affairs for CharityVillage.  “During a time when our sector has been challenged to embrace digital transformation at record speed as a result of the pandemic, we see these online criminal record, background and reference checking services as critical components of the employee and volunteer recruitment toolkit.  The services offer time and cost savings for busy nonprofit professionals, greater efficiencies and speed in screening new hires and volunteers, and help to overcome backlogs in the local police systems in one of the most important processes of responsible talent acquisition.”

eReference Checks

Stop playing telephone tag with a candidate’s references with eReference Checks. With an average turnaround time of 24-36 hours, you’ll not only shorten the hiring process but also save yourself precious time in your schedule.

Here’s how it works:

  1. Review our 5 available question sets and choose the most applicable for your position. Question sets include options for staff, volunteers, and leadership positions.
  2. The candidate fills in the contact details for their references, who then provide feedback securely. Candidates and references receive email and text notifications to speed up response times.
  3. Once feedback is collected, you’ll receive detailed analytics that are stored securely on our platform. You’ll also have the option to export comprehensive reports.

Criminal Background Checks

Tired of waiting for your criminal record checks for staff and volunteers? Our affordable service has an average turnaround time of 4 hours with rush service available. Choose from a Basic Check, often referred to as a Standard or CPIC, or an Enhanced Check, often referred to as a Criminal Record and Judicial Matters Check (CRJMC), Police Information Check, or a Level 2 Check.
