About Us
Two Decades of Uncompromised Truth.
Before Global Trust Was Standard, It Was Our Mission. GSS is a story that spans across continents and decades, built to answer one critical question: How do growing companies onboard at scale without the fear of bad actors? Seeing this systemic vulnerability, our founder, Rabinder Singh Sikand, set out to do what the industry avoided: engineer a reliable, borderless and legally defensible verification pipeline
The Idea
Back in 2004, the background verification industry relied on fragmented local systems and guesswork. Most providers simply rubber-stamped resumes, accepting them as absolute truth. Seeing an opportunity to fix this, our founder partnered with Lester Rosen, a pioneer in the American background check industry and founder of the PBSA. Recognizing our shared commitment to true risk mitigation, Rosen’s California-based firm trusted GSS to architect and manage their international verification pipeline.
The Opportunity
GSS was tasked with verifying candidates across dozens of countries, each with its own legal frameworks, language barriers, from Brazil to Philippines and everywhere in between. We had to build a global verification blueprint from scratch, establishing direct-to-source networks worldwide and ensuring every check met rigorous, American-grade legal defensibility.
Successfully executing this complex, high-stakes global delivery gave us the exact operational playbook we needed for our next major milestone and the birth of the Indian dream for us.

They brought with them strict, uncompromising compliance standards, but found almost no local verification that could meet their ask. While we were quietly growing and mastering the art of verification, this economic shift put us at the forefront, taking on this challenge changed how India and the world sees Employment Verification.
Our rigour and mastery on verification systems for these very types of multinational enterprises was well established, these tech giants entrusted us to bring those same elite standards to India.
Starting operations in India in 2006, GSS redefined how background checks were conducted through deep collaboration with enterprise HR leaders. The thorough, direct-to-source process GSS defined in 2006 became, and remains today, the marquee gold standard for employment verification in India. We were the first to establish a written, attested and verified claim for every detail and HR leaders could finally breathe a sign of relief and be sure of every hire.
Our reputation for absolute integrity, accuracy, and speed quickly attracted marquee clients across highly regulated industries, including Pfizer, Castrol, CSC, ITC India, and ANZ Bank. Most notably, GSS became an industry trailblazer by managing the entire background check process for Amazon in India for over fifteen years, building a robust, faultless operation that continues to set the benchmark for the industry today.
The Present and Future
Modern business moves at the velocity of the gig economy, instant API integrations, and a highly fluid global workforce. The challenge for companies today isn't just getting accurate verifications, it’s getting them instantly without sacrificing compliance.

We don't rely on third-party data aggregators or shortcut the process. As platforms and enterprise teams build the future, GSS provides the clean, reliable data pipeline that allows them to scale fearlessly.
