Harnessing Big Data from References with Online Reference Checking

When companies base hiring decisions on high quality reference feedback and data about candidates, they increase staff retention and productivity, and reduce legal risks.

But the traditional method of checking references by telephone is time-consuming, inefficient and ineffective. References are hard to reach and usually unable or unwilling to provide any insightful information about the candidate, or offer a detailed evaluation of their abilities. Pre-Hire 360 is an online automated reference solution that lets businesses quickly and confidentially capture consistent, honest, and in-depth information about a candidate’s past performance from the best source around -- from the candidate’s professional references. The solution’s unique combination of behavioral science and talent analytics help businesses harness powerful data and insights about their candidates so that they can make more informed hiring decisions. And the web-based, patented solution automates the process of receiving feedback from references adding a whole new level of speed and productivity.
