FAQ

Although consent from the applicant is not required for reference checks, a prospective employer may still wish to obtain written consent, especially if the prospective employer intends to contact previous employers who are not listed as referees.

You haven't asked your references for permission.Always ask for permission to use someone as a reference, and give them as much information about the jobs you're applying for as possible.

A Reference Check Consent Form is used by HR, Hiring Managers or anyone involved in conducting reference checks to: Communicate to your final candidate(s) the type of references you need them to provide. Obtain reference provider names, details, and contact information.

Marital Status, Family, and Children An applicant's marital status and family life, including current or planned children, have no place in a reference check. For example, if a hiring manager asks about a candidate's family and does not hire the applicant, the company could be liable for discrimination.

What Step Is A Reference Check In The Application Process? Conducting a reference check is often the final step a hiring manager or recruiter takes before presenting a job offer to a candidate. They may also conduct a background check and an employment history check, which we'll cover later on.

Candidates should have given permission, generally, for reference checking to be conducted. Reference checkers should not reach out to anyone the candidate has expressly asked not be contacted. Reference checkers should not contact references from a candidate's current employer without express permission.

There is no limitation on the pre-employment references that can be contacted unless the candidate specifically requests this. However, no reference checking whatsoever should be done without the written consent of the candidate.

Here are some of the questions that may be asked during a reference check:When did (name) work for your company? Could you confirm starting and ending employment dates?What was her/his position?Could I briefly review (name's) resume?Why did (name) leave the company?What was her/his starting and ending salary?

If the employer has any doubts about whether or not the individual has given consent, it should contact them to check that they wish the reference to be provided. The employer should obtain the consent in writing if possible, or should at least make a note of the individual's verbal consent.

Reference checks are a way for prospective employers to find out more information about a job candidate from people who know them and have worked with them. To conduct a reference check, an employer may use a form with standard questions. This allows them to ensure they collect the same information from each candidate.
