The expected benefit of background screening applicants is to prevent hiring someone with a dangerous criminal background, or perhaps to uncover dishonest resumes. By advertising that you will use background screening as a normal part of your hiring process, you can gain an additional benefit. Known criminals will be reluctant to even apply for the job, and applicants are much more likely to provide a complete and truthful application or resume. This will obviously save time and money in an employer’s hiring process, before they even being reviewing applications!
