Client stories

Careers back on track

THANK YOU! Your service answered the dreaded for me: what would my past employer say about me, since the job ended badly. I was worried but then very relieved to get your report that they were standing by the law…no details. I am able to sleep at night now! It is well worth the fee for this information to be made available to those of us trying to move on! Thank you so much for a great service and a thorough job!

There are many e-reference check website services. I know now I made the right assessment to choose this one. I would definitely use it again. I am completely satisfied.

I should have used your service years ago when I first looked into it.

Why check your references

The #1 reason a qualified applicant doesn’t get the job

is a bad reference from a former employer. If you’re concerned a previous boss is badmouthing you, don’t leave your career and your financial future up to chance.

Confidentiality

Because we also work with recruiters, attorneys and direct-hire companies, your references are not told who is asking about your employment history. We never misrepresent who we are.

Persistence

Calls begin within 48 hours of your order. We call and leave a minimum of four messages; most prospective employers give up after two or three.

Peace of mind

If you suspect an old boss is slandering you and costing you offers, a documented reference check can confirm it and give you the ability to do something about it.

How it works

We make it simple.

Three steps, start to finish. You never have to make an awkward phone call yourself.

  1. 1

    Enter your reference information

    After you place your order, we’ll ask for a few details about each reference: name, title, company and how you worked together.

    Takes a few minutes
  2. 2

    We make the phone calls

    Within 48 hours, our staff begins contacting your former employer, discreetly, the same way a prospective employer would. We leave at least four messages before we stop trying.

    Calls begin within 48 hours
  3. 3

    Detailed report, delivered

    We email you when your report is ready. Read your reference’s word-for-word commentary through the secure client login, so you know exactly what a hiring manager hears.

Secure your next opportunity

Know what they’ll say before they say it.

Don’t let a past employer hold back your next offer. Make sure your references reflect your true value.
