How do you screen tenants?

Hi, I am wondering how other landlords screen tenants? What tools/service do you use?

Do you use an application or just background, credit, criminal and eviction checks?

What information do you decide which tenant to select?

How do you verify Identity? How do you verify income?

I've used Smartmove and Zillow (Experian). 

Curious what others are doing. Thank you!
