Reference Varification

Reference check involves confirming information from the individuals that are referenced by the candidate. The references typically include those of previous supervisor and/or co-workers of the candidate. Such checks can be conducted on the telephone, through email exchange or face-to-face conversation with the referent.

A professional verification is a must for every candidate that is being hired in an organization. This helps an organization in knowing professionally about a candidate. This includes knowing about the candidate’s job knowledge and competencies, strengths and improvement areas, adaptability, ability to perform under various circumstances, overall performance and reason for leaving the organization.
