"Turn Technologies is a valuable resource in reviewing candidates"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Turn?

Turn creates an open platform to view applicants and their background history. When selecting candidates for a position, knowing the elements they include helps make applicant decisions clear. The upside of Turn is that applicants can get processed in less than 48 hours we can move applicants along quicker in their application process with the company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Turn?

The downside of Turn is that sometimes, applicants can get stuck in a limbo period and resolving any issue may take longer than 72 hours. I've had an instance where I've waited over a week for confirmation details on one applicant. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Love Working with Turn - Very Responsive and Open to Feedback"

5/5

What do you like best about Turn?

Everyone I've contacted at Turn or our organization has contacted has been responsive and helpful with our needs or concerns. They are open to our feedback and making changes if needed, or sharing why something is done a certain way. I always appreciate their attention to customer service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Turn?

Our organization doesn't love that our volunteers who get background checked must select one checkbox that they want their report and their emails must be added to a marketing distribution list. We understand why this is done for the average user of Turn and we don't fault them for that, but it just doesn't work with our organization's reason for using Turn. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Turn solving and how is that benefiting you?

Our organization uses Turn to background check volunteers who travel on mission trips to other countries. We do this by having volunteers fill out an application and the background check is part of that process. We could not find another company that could integrate with our system and not have users use a separate system outside of ours. But the Turn team has worked well with our web developer to clear any issues and find a seamless process that moves them through the application process more quickly than we had experienced before.

"Easy to use background check system with bilingual and chat support"

5/5

What do you like best about Turn?

Our relationship with Turn started last year when we needed to run background checks on several thousand people quickly. Not only did Turn tailor a package to fit our needs, but their pricing strategy was fair and their customer support was unbelievable. I especially enjoy working with our new account manager Marissa. She is fantastic and cares about our experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Turn?

Would like to have better reporting features. Everything else is excellent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Turn?

It might be nice if once the driver takes the drug test, there is a notification that it has been accepted and just waiting on results ...this might already be an option I'm unaware of Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"So far our experience with Turn has been very positive. Quick responses for candidate background chk"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Turn?

I really appreciate that Turn was willing to integrate with our ATS (Lever) - it wasn't already in place and they worked with Lever to build. SImilar to competitors in the integration and Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Turn?

It has taken time and a lot of questions to better understand the different statuses - not quite as intuitive as I would expect - I was able to get access to the dashboard to get more information but still needed clarification - especially CONSENT status as nobody in our organization had experience with another vendor that had that initial authorization collected from the applicant and then further consent in some cases. Our team didn't understand why sometimes that additional consent is needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Turn:

Easy to use, direct or through ATS integration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Turn solving and how is that benefiting you?

Our higher area volume was looking for a more cost effective tool. Our area (Talent Acquisition) used the same vendor as our high volume area so we went along with their choice of vendor. It seems to be working out well Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
