REFERENCE CHECKING SERVICES

Canada's Leader in Reference Check Services

Conducting reference checks is an important step in acquiring the best employees for your company. But for many companies, reference checking and verification can be a game of telephone tag, taking up precious time and resources.

  • What’s Included In A Reference Check?

    As a part of our pre-employment reference check services, our team confirms the accuracy of information provided by applicants, including previous job title, compensation, and employment dates. We also gather information including:

    • Reason for Leaving
    • Job Duties
    • Strengths
    • Weaknesses or Areas for Improvement
    • Work Habits
    • Management Style
    • Attendance and Punctuality
    • Honesty and Integrity
    • Stress Management
    • Attitude and Interactions

    Our reference checks can be customized with specific questions based on the position you are looking to fill. They can also be customized to focus on any specific areas of importance, so you are able to gather more in-depth data on applicants of specific positions or departments.

  • How Long Does A Reference Check Take?

    Our researchers are available to make and receive calls, providing a quick turnaround time so you get your results as soon as possible. Once the reference has been taken, reports are completed in just minutes.


    When complete, you will be able to access the results of the reference check directly online.
