What Is SourceDirect?
SourceDirect was designed to eliminate the inefficiencies that come with managing multiple screening vendors, disconnected systems, and manual processes.
By consolidating all screening services into a single platform, HR and talent acquisition teams gain greater visibility, consistency, and control throughout the hiring workflow.
In practice, that means:
-
One login for every screening service in the AccuSourceHR catalog, not a separate system per service type
-
Real-time visibility into everything in progress, without switching between tools to check status
-
A historical record of every report and result, all in one place
For system administrators and HR teams, SourceDirect is what turns a list of individual screening services into a single, manageable program — and because it's built in-house rather than licensed from a third party, it's built to connect directly into the ATS or HRIS your team already uses (see our Background Check API page for the technical details).

Scales with your hiring needs
Whether you're supporting a single location or a nationwide workforce, SourceDirect provides a consistent experience across teams, departments, and hiring volumes.
Built to Integrate
SourceDirect connects to over 50 turnkey ATS and HRIS partners — including Workday, UKG, SAP SuccessFactors, iCIMS, Bullhorn, Greenhouse, and many others — through a modern RESTful API, so screening and onboarding data flow directly to and from the systems your team already uses, without re-entering candidate information by hand. Our implementation team works directly with your organization to configure workflows, validate requirements, and support a smooth integration process from start to finish.
Have a system that's not on our partner list? Our team can build a custom integration using the same API.
For the full technical breakdown — including sandbox access, authentication, and implementation details — see our Background Check API page.
The cost of a bad hire is estimated at 30% of the employee's annual salary.
This cost increases significantly if the employee damages your organization's reputation or poses a threat to your workforce.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
What is SourceDirect and how is it different from AccuSourceHR's screening services themselves?
