Frequently Asked Questions

How does a reference check work?

You add the candidate and their referees. We ask each referee the same structured questions, they answer in their own time, and you get a summary you can compare against other candidates.

Does the candidate know?

Yes. Consent is asked for every time, and the candidate can see what was shared about them.

How long does it take?

Most referees respond within a day or two. You are told as soon as each one comes back.

What does it cost?

You only pay when a result comes back. A clean result still counts as a result.

What about right to work and criminal checks?

Those are not live yet. They are listed above so you can see what is coming, and marked so nobody mistakes a placeholder for a completed check.
