Digital Reference Checks offers a digitalised route to traditional referencing, where the process is completed swiftly and seamlessly, allowing references on the candidate to be completed earlier in the hiring journey.
What Is A Reference Check?
We must first need to understand what reference checks are about.
Employment reference checks are key to strategic hiring decisions as they provide additional details beyond the interview and resume, gathering information on candidates work history and performance through their previous colleagues and managers who are in close contact with the candidate. This allows hiring organisations to obtain valuable insights on a candidate, work attitude, productivity, social, communication and listening skills, culture fit, motivations, strengths, and weaknesses.
What Is Digital Reference Checks About?
Digital Reference Checks offers a digitalised route to traditional referencing, where the process is completed swiftly and seamlessly, allowing references on the candidate to be completed earlier in the hiring journey. Facilitated by our proprietary technology, Digital Reference Checks can be requested by the recruiter in seconds. When a candidate completes their profile, an instant email notification to the referee is triggered. The referee can then complete the reference on any device and at any time that suits them, with all their responses being recorded directly in the Digital Reference Checks system.
Why Choose Digital Reference Checks?
What Are The Steps In The Process?
How Does the Digital Reference Checks Process Help The Referee, Candidate, And Employer?
Digital Reference Checks are requested and received digitally, freeing up time for HR staff by avoiding “phone tag” and allowing them to get on with other responsibilities.
All of this efficiency combines to create a quicker and more accurate process for onboarding new employees. This is a must-have in the current fast-paced recruiting environment.
Rethink and challenge the assumptions you may have made about the candidate by looking at their interpersonal and communication skills from previous positions. Using this information can help you determine whether a candidate is a strong team player or a self-motivated solo contributor, based on his or her cultural fit with your organization.
What Is The Difference Between A Reference Check And Employment Verification?
Employment verification is quantitative in nature, focusing on specific job facts: job titles, salary, start and end dates, and reasons for leaving. References are qualitative, providing valuable insights on candidates’ interpersonal skills, strengths, development opportunities, motivations and how they may fit into your organisational culture.
