    Frequently Asked Questions

    About Background Screening for Greek Letter Organizations

    What is included in a background check for new members of a sorority or fraternity?

    Our screening packages are customizable based on your organization’s needs and policies. The most common services for new sorority and fraternity members are criminal history searches on the county, state, and national levels, SSN Trace, and social media searches.

    Why should I screen new members?

    A greek organization covers a wide scope of people who depend on and uphold the brand’s reputation. As the world continues to change rapidly, people want to trust that their sorority or fraternity will maintain consistent values of trust and respect. Background screening is a necessary step in upholding brand reputation, building a safe environment, and ensuring nondiscriminatory recruiting efforts. 

    How does pricing work?

    InfoMart works with organizations on an individual basis to determine which pricing method is right for them. We offer a candidate self-pay model, which is perfect for organizations that do not want to absorb screening costs. In this model, candidates pay through our platform when they submit their information. Organizations may also choose to pay for background checks.

    What is a social media search?

    Our social media searches scan candidates’ social media profiles for signs of violent or illegal behavior, racism or intolerance, and sexually explicit behavior. This protects your organization’s reputation while minimizing the risk of a negligent hire.

    Can I search an applicant’s social media profiles in-house?

    Social media background checks come with a complicated list of policies that make it difficult for companies to run them in-house compliantly. It’s best to go through a trusted third-party if you want to know more about a candidate’s social media presence.
