Sterling Identity Verification is an identity verification solution designed for use during the candidate screening process. The product enables candidates to verify their identity remotely, addressing the challenges posed by the rise of remote and gig worker hiring where in-person verification is not practical. The solution is positioned as a response to the increasing frequency of data breaches, providing organizations with a mechanism to confirm that candidates are who they claim to be before or during the hiring process. Verification can be initiated at the start of the screening workflow and is accessible from any location at any time. Sterling Identity has since rebranded as First Advantage Biometrics, with the product continuing under that entity.
