What We Do, How We Do It

Too often, companies use a piecemeal approach when it comes to screening drivers. They might use one vendor to help recruit. Another to screen. And still, another to address the complex world that is compliance. This approach is inefficient, expensive, and redundant. Not to mention, it makes it too easy for things to fall through the cracks.

At Foley, we've built a company that effortlessly manages these three areas under one roof: recruit, screen, and comply. Thanks to powerful technology combined with our compliance expertise, we're able to deliver a comprehensive solution to our customers and, as a result, a better overall customer experience.

Where We're Headed

We're always developing new solutions to slay tomorrow's recruitment, screening, and compliance monsters. At the core of these solutions is our vast collection of data—and the many ways to leverage it, whether that's developing software to calculate a company's compliance risk or implementing predictive analytics to identify the best drivers.

What It's Like to Work with Us

Diving deep into a niche industry and becoming an expert . . .

Continually growing and advancing . . .

Making lifelong friends during the process . . .

That sums up what it's like to work for us. We're a 250+ person company on the verge of explosive growth thanks to our AI-powered technology—and where it's headed with predictive analytics. If you'd like to board our rocket ship, check us out:
