Once the Jobylon integration is set up, you can launch background checks and track their progress without leaving Jobylon.

If you haven't set up the integration yet, see [Setting up the Jobylon integration](/v1/docs/setting-up-the-jobylon-integration) before continuing.

## Launch checks within Jobylon

1. Open the three-dot menu at the top of the candidate's profile.

4. Refresh your browser, and you will see a yellow Checkmate Card with a **Pending** status.
The **Pending** status means that the candidate has been created in Checkmate and checks can be added to them.

6. The Checkmate window will open in a new tab, prompting you to select your desired background checks.
7. Select the **Bundle** or individual checks you'd like to launch. If your organisation has more than one brand, select the appropriate **Brand**.
8. Once you've selected your checks and configured any options for those checks, scroll down and click **Launch Checks**.
