In a recent episode of the HR business marketing podcast, A Better HR Business, Ben spoke with Donny Phillips, Director of Partnerships at Vault Verify, a company that’s reshaping how HR departments manage employment and income verifications.

Traditional verification providers collect and store massive amounts of employee data—whether it’s needed or not—updating every pay cycle and increasing the risk of breaches. HR teams often face a flood of verification requests and follow-up calls, even when outsourcing to third parties with outdated data.

Vault Verify takes a smarter approach: no bulk data collection, no long-term storage. They access real-time, up-to-the-second data only when a verified request comes in—one employee at a time. This minimizes risk, reduces HR workload, and ensures verifications are always accurate.

Vault Verify’s real-time data access means every verification is current up to that very moment. This eliminates those follow-up headaches.

Implementation, too, is refreshingly light: Vault Verify handles nearly all of the setup, usually requiring clients to invest just 3-5 hours of mainly validation work.

Beyond technology, Vault Verify’s marketing approach reflects the same integrity as its product. The company is committed to educating HR leaders, “leaning in on knowledge share, educational type of content,” Donny says. From podcasts and webinars, with a focus on events that offer continuing education credits, to strategic partnerships with HR technology providers and consulting groups, the focus is firmly on empowerment, not hard sell.

In a wide-ranging discussion, Donny and Ben talked about:

  • Vault Verify’s fresh approach to employment and income verifications.
  • Avoiding the risks of mass data integration through privacy-first practices.
  • Simplifying provider transitions for HR teams.
  • Driving growth through thought leadership and education.
  • Building momentum with strategic HR tech partnerships.
  • Staying competitive through continuous innovation.
  • And much more!

Thanks, Donny!
