How to get started with Reference Checks

Introduction

Reference checking is a crucial step in the hiring process that gathers information about a job candidate's performance, work habits, and overall suitability for a role directly from the referees who have worked most closely with them.

Veremark enables organizations to collect references digitally through a fast, secure, and low-effort process.

What is different about Veremark Reference Checks?

Veremark Reference Checks are fully customizable, giving you the flexibility to tailor them to your specific requirements.

You can define referee types, specify the number of referees required, and provide custom instructions. Additionally, you can use our multiple questionnaire functionality to assign targeted questionnaires. This allows you to gather focused feedback on key areas, such as technical proficiency and interpersonal skills, helping you build a more complete picture of a candidate.

To get the most out of this check, it is essential to set it up correctly.

First, set up your questionnaires. You can create your own from scratch or use our industry-specific templates to get started. Once your questionnaires have been created, head to the Criteria Builder to configure the referee rules and add any special instructions, if required.
