However, background checks in Kitchener are often conducted on citizens for the purpose of employment screening for local businesses. The amount of time a background check takes will be dependent on how deep the check goes. ​ Background checks in Kitchener can involve researching criminal history, credit history, social media presence, past education, employment history, references, and a Kitchener resident's personal history.

Kitchener Background Check Databases
A big part of performing a Kitchener background check will involve verifying a citizen's past history using databases accessed by Kitchener Private Investigators, some paid databases and also free to use ones. A Kitchener Background Cyber Investigator typically uses a paid Ontario government database to access information regarding criminal history. However, just simply discovering Kitchener court records is usually a service that the ON government jurisdiction offers for free. However, with a Kitchener Private Investigator service, those records can be found much faster. Often, a Kitchener Private Investigator will lookup a citizen's ON court record for free and resort to paying for a criminal record check if court records are found.
This is a task that a Kitchener PI can do faster and at a lower cost than the average person.​
Unlike searching for court records, a credit history check will often require the Cyber Investigator to pay for accessing the Ontario database that holds financial records.
Kitchener Background Check: Phone Calls
When conducting a background check on a Kitchener citizen, an Ontario Private Investigator will often perform a fair amount of phone calls if the client requests. This happens a lot when verifying educational degrees or employment history. Often, the Kitchener Cyber Investigator will contact the educational institute via phone and validate the degree with the school's records department. However, some ON universities and colleges protect these records. ​ In this case, the Kitchener Investigator will have to contact the Kitchener resident who is the subject of the background check and get them to contact the ON post-secondary institution themselves in order to access this information. The Kitchener citizen will then be asked to request an educational transcript from the school and get the school to mail it to a Kitchener address of the Investigator's choosing. This will mitigate tampering of the records document. As with education, researching Kitchener references will also require phone calls. The Kitchener Cyber Investigator will have to validate that the references are who they say they are and contact them in order to hear their opinions on the subject of the check.

However, a skilled Kitchener Cyber Investigator will be able to find all relevant information and be able to accurately verify and document it properly. This is why, even with a simple background check task, an experienced and skilled Kitchener Cyber Investigator should always be utilized.
