Reference Checks
Reference Checks are one of the original and most widely-accepted background checks, having formed part of the recruitment process for decades.
Traditionally, references sought to obtain subjective information regarding the character of an individual and now extend to verifying a candidate’s previous employment periods and/or their skills and experience that may be relevant to their role. Additionally, references are more investigative, seeking details of personal attributes of candidates that potential employers should be aware of, such as reliability, honesty and the way that they interact with others.
