Giving consent as a candidate
You've been asked to complete a Pescheck screening. Here is exactly what consent means, what we will ask you for, and your rights at every step.
How do I check the status of my screening?
If you've been asked to complete a screening and want to know where it stands, here is how to check and what each status means.
What happens after my screening completes?
Your screening is done. Here is who sees the report, what it contains, and what to do if you want a copy.
Can I see the final report?
Yes, under GDPR you have the right to a copy of your own background screening report. Here are the two ways to get one.
Are organisations allowed to screen me?
Yes, background screening is legal in the Netherlands and across the EU, with strict rules about what can be checked, when, and how.
Who can see my screening results?
Only authorised staff at Pescheck and the organisation that requested your screening. No third parties, no marketing, no sale of your data, ever.
How does a screening benefit me as a candidate?
Being screened is not just an employer asking for trust, it is also a record you can use for your career, shorter hiring processes, and proof of your own integrity.
Can I request a screening for myself?
Yes, you can run your own background check, get a verified report, and share it with future employers or clients on your terms.
