Universal Background Screening, Inc. Adds to Its Management Team and Moves its Phoenix Corporate Headquarters

Phoenix December 2, 2009 -- Universal Background Screening, Inc., a leading provider of employment background screening services, today announced that the Company added a Vice President of Sales and a Vice President of Marketing to its Senior Management Team. Universal also announced that it has completed its planned move of its Corporate Headquarters in Phoenix.

Universal recently hired David Nadell as its Vice President of Marketing and Alan Lasky as its Vice President of Sales. Alan and David have both been in the background screening  industry for eight years. Their most recent positions were with Kroll's Background Screening division, having arrived there as a result of the sale of InfoLink Screening Services to Kroll in 2006. They were both instrumental in the success achieved by InfoLink prior to its sale to Kroll.

Alan Lasky will manage the Company's Sales Department. David Nadell will manage the Company's Marketing Department. The two seasoned industry executives will be instrumental in helping the existing senior management team with new product development, managing existing and attracting new partner alliances, implementing lead generation initiatives, further building the Universal brand and expanding into new industry segments.

While it has been widely reported that the background screening industry is down as much as 30% during this most recent recession, Universal has experienced growth during that same period. Specifically, over the past two years, Universal's transactional volume has grown over 20%. Also during that time, the Company expanded its work force by over 20 new positions.

"Universal's enduring commitment to customer service is the key to our growth in these difficult times," explained Ryan Krostue, CEO.

"David and Alan bring a significant amount of experience and industry expertise to Universal," said Krostue. "Adding them to our team represents a seminal moment for our Organization. Our collective optimism and excitement for the future is energizing and their involvement will allow us to implement long standing strategies for growing the Company."
