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 runs every check the moment an application arrives, ranks your applicants, assembles the §391 DQ file, and monitors every driver so a new violation never slips past you.

FAQ

Questions carriers ask.

+What checks do you run?
MVR (motor vehicle record), PSP (crash & inspection history), county/national criminal with SSN trace, and DOT pre-employment drug screening — plus the FMCSA Clearinghouse query. We recommend the right package for the role and state.
+How fast is it?
Most checks return the same day. With the self-serve portal and auto-screening you can go from application to a compliant, cleared-to-hire driver in under 24 hours.
+Do you build the driver-qualification file?
Yes. As results land, X3 assembles the §391.51 DQ file — application, MVR, medical certificate slot, drug result, Clearinghouse — so it’s audit-ready, not a pile of PDFs.
+Is this FCRA compliant?
Yes. Consent is captured in the candidate portal and the pre- and final adverse-action workflow is built in. X3 Background is decision support, not legal advice — follow your counsel’s guidance on adverse actions.
+Does it work with my other X3 products?
Yes — one login across the X3 family. Monitoring feeds X3 MVR, CSA and DOT Audit, so a driver you hire stays visible everywhere.
Stop hiring blind.

Run the checks, build the DQ file, and know a driver is compliant — before they ever get behind the wheel.
