What Our Pre-Employment Screening Includes

Every company has its own hiring standards and safety concerns, so we offer a range of services that you can combine into a screening package that fits your needs. Our local facility serves employers across Santa Clara and nearby communities, providing a convenient location for candidates who live or work in the area.

Pre-employment drug and alcohol testing is often the center of an employer screening program. We provide collection for different test options, including rapid tests for quick initial information and lab-based testing for more detailed results, depending on your policy and industry requirements. Our collectors follow clear procedures from check-in to specimen collection, which supports consistency from one applicant to the next.

Many employers also need background screening to round out the hiring picture. Through our partnerships with trusted background screening companies, your team can access background checks, criminal record searches, and employment or education verifications. These services are designed to help you confirm the information on a resume and identify issues that may affect a role.

Crimcheck and Universal Background Screening provide accredited background screening solutions that align with strict industry standards. Their platforms are built to support compliance and efficient reporting, which means you can typically review many reports quickly once your candidate has completed required forms. When combined with our in-person testing, this creates a thorough and convenient pre-hire review process.

We also understand that comfort and discretion matter when someone visits a testing facility. Our Santa Clara location is designed to be clean and welcoming, and our collectors take care to protect privacy at every step. Your applicants are treated with respect, which helps you maintain a positive candidate experience even while you are gathering sensitive information.

How Our Screening Process Works

Knowing what to expect makes it much easier to add a new partner to your hiring process. We keep the steps straightforward so you can start sending candidates to us for testing and screening with confidence. Our team is available to answer questions as you go, especially during your first few orders.

Contact Us to Discuss Your Employee Screening Needs

Typically, employers begin by contacting Fastest Labs of Santa Clara to discuss their hiring needs and current policies. We talk with you about which roles you are hiring for, what types of tests you need, and how often you plan to screen. From there, we help you set up an approach that matches your internal procedures and, when relevant, any industry rules you must follow.

Testing Options

Once you are set up, sending candidates is simple. You can schedule visits or, for many test types, direct applicants to visit our Santa Clara facility during business hours. When your candidate arrives, our front desk greets them, confirms identification, and guides them through the collection process. Because we work to keep wait times short, most candidates are in and out quickly.

Fast Collections and Results

After collection, specimens are processed according to the selected test type. Some screening tests generate results very quickly, while others require laboratory analysis. We explain expected turnaround times when you order each service so you can plan your hiring timeline. When results are ready, they are reported securely to your designated company contact so your team can review and decide on next steps.

Protecting privacy is an important part of what we do. Our collectors follow strict chain-of-custody procedures and handle all information and results confidentially. Only authorized employer contacts receive results, and your applicants’ information is managed with care to support both compliance expectations and your own internal standards.

Support For Ongoing Employer Programs

Many employers in and around Santa Clara are not just filling one role. They are hiring regularly or managing safety-sensitive positions that require ongoing testing. We help these organizations build and maintain employer drug testing programs that fit their industry, workforce, and risk level.

Our team can work with you to consider or refine a written policy that outlines when testing occurs, which positions are covered, and which test types you plan to use. We can then support that policy with services such as pre-employment testing, reasonable suspicion testing, post-accident testing, and periodic or random screenings, depending on what your company chooses to implement.

For employers with larger teams or multiple shifts, coordinating testing at the workplace can be helpful. We offer on-site mobile collection options so that, in many situations, employees do not need to travel to a separate facility. This can be particularly useful for transportation, construction, or manufacturing operations where time away from the site can be hard to manage.

Our goal is to reduce the administrative work that falls on your HR staff or managers. By providing consistent procedures, responsive communication, and a single point of contact for your testing needs, we help you keep your program running smoothly over time. As your business grows or your hiring patterns change, we can adjust services to match.
