# The referee for character reference feedback is blank

### **Troubleshooting a Blank Questionnaire Screen**

When a referee clicks the link for a Character Reference or Performance Questionnaire, the web page is blank or does not load correctly.Cause: This issue is most often caused by browser settings, network restrictions, or incompatible software.

### **Recommended Troubleshooting Steps**

Please ask the referee to follow these steps in order. If one step resolves the issue, they do not need to continue to the next.

1. Use a Private or Incognito Window: The simplest first step is to copy the link and paste it into a new "Private" or "Incognito" browser window. This often bypasses issues related to browser cache and cookies.
2. Clear Browser Cache and Cookies: If a private window works, the issue is likely cached data. Clearing the browser's cache and cookies will ensure you are loading the latest version of the page.
3. Use a Different Supported Browser: Open the link in an up-to-date version of a supported browser, such as Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Mozilla Firefox, or Safari. Veremark does not support Internet Explorer or other outdated browsers.
4. Try Another Device or Network: If the issue continues, try opening the link on a different device (like a smartphone or personal computer) and a different network (like a home Wi-Fi or cellular data connection). This helps rule out corporate network restrictions.
5. Contact Support: If the questionnaire still does not load after completing all the steps above, please contact Veremark Support or email [clientsupport@veremark.com](mailto:clientsupport@veremark.com) for further assistance.
