Applicant Screening Process

[Jay Levy]

I’m looking for a feedback and advice around process and tools used by owners and managers around applicant submission, tracking, analyzing and selecting. More specifically any info you can share around tools you use to receive applications, background & credit checks, analyze the applications and rank and rate the applicants.  If you have built any templates that would be great to see also. 

Along with tools and internal Process you have for selecting applications and ensuring compliance with all laws would be helpful.

We use appfolio for our tenant screening process and the UJS site to do background checks! Appfolio lets you pull credit reports, calculate if income is met, etc... 

All of our apps are first come first served so we dont rank them super often, but I believe appfolio allows you to set your requirements and will advise you whether or not an applicant meets the requirements as well.
