AvatarFleet and HireRight have joined to improve the driver hiring and retention process.
HireRight is a provider of global employment screening, drug and health testing, and employment eligibility solutions. AvatarFleet offers applicant tracking systems.
The joint efforts will integrate HireRight’s background check solutions with AvatarFleet’s ApplicantCare product.
