FMCSA-grade checks · §391 pre-hire checklist · continuous criminal + watchlist monitoring.
One bad hire can fail your next audit.
Hiring is where compliance starts — and where most carriers get burned. A missing MVR, an incomplete driver-qualification file, a skipped pre-employment drug test or Clearinghouse query, and one new hire becomes an audit finding. X3 lets you order the checks the moment an application arrives, ranks your applicants, lays out every §391 / §382 pre-hire step, and keeps hired drivers on continuous criminal + watchlist monitoring.
Everything to hire a compliant driver — in one place.
Run the checks, build the file, rank the applicants and monitor every driver. Here’s what you get:
MVR, PSP, criminal history and SSN trace through Checkr — ordered in one click, paid at checkout.
Every document §391.51 requires, plus a DQ-File Assembler specialist that lists what’s present and what’s missing. Full DQ-file audits run in X3 Verify.
Upload an application and X3 reads it into your pipeline; rank the pool for a role so you interview the best drivers first.
The driver gets a Checkr invitation, consents and enters their own SSN on Checkr’s secure page — you never handle it.
Continuous national criminal + global watchlist monitoring after hire, through Checkr. License/MVR monitoring lives in X3 MVR.
The Screening Hire Read separates what disqualifies from what’s a judgment call and walks you through the FCRA pre- and final adverse-action steps. You send the notices.
A base package plus optional add-ons, each priced before checkout — no surprises.
Ask any hiring, DQ-file or background-check question and get a grounded, cited answer.
Applicant applies → You order the checks → Results land → Cleared & monitored.
