Reference Checks in 3 Simple Steps
Collect References
Create a custom form to send to your candidates and applicants to collect their references.
Reference Check Form
Create a custom reference check form to be sent out to references to fill in. You can have different forms for different roles & applicant types!
Automated Sequences
Create sequences of automated emails and SMS messages to ask people to complete references! The Reference Assistant will take it from there, reaching out to people on your behalf.
Why does it work?
The main reason is that people are busy. We've worked with thousands of applicants and references, in most cases references are happy to provide a reference and willing to talk to you, they just don't have time to take a random call in the middle of the day.
Have you ever spent a day calling references, leaving voicemail after voicemail, and nobody answers?
This doesn't mean you can't call people, and if you do get someone on the phone that's great! But a form based system just makes life easier for everyone, allowing references to provide the reference when it's convenient for them, surprisingly often at random times, early in the morning, late at night and on the weekend.
IP tracking technology helps make sure the same person is not filling in all the references.
You'll have a master table where you can keep track of all your applicants and all their references.
The system will generate beautiful reference reports you can use to present the reference results to your clients.
Is this really free? Why?
The honest answer is we are hoping you might want to try our full agency automation and management system at some point!
But if you don’t, no worries! You can use the Reference Check Assistant for free forever, no strings attached.
At Enginehire we believe very deeply in the value of time. Every minute matters, and we don’t want you to spend a single one of yours on mindless tasks that don’t improve your business or life.
If you want a professional reference checking option beyond the automated assistant, we also have an integration with a company called Scout!

When I first spoke with Enginehire I thought the price was a little steep and almost did not move forward. Ever since then the price is worth every penny. If I ever need anything updated, they respond almost immediately with a solution. They are continuously working to keep the system updated and always adding new features Read full review Founder of Nannies Coast to Coast

I should have done this months ago. I waited out of fear and concern that automation wouldn't be the right fit for such a personalized service. I was so wrong and I'm kicking my past self for waiting! Any agency that is on the fence or considering Enginehire should just take the plunge. It is worth every penny!

We have used so many platforms. From iCims to Bullhorn, to trying to create ones ourselves with Zoho, Asana, Monday.com, Trello, and Airtable. They just did not work for our industry. Enginhire has created a logical system that is simple to use with lots of amazing features. I am so glad we found them. Read full review Tiny Treasures NYC

The software is brilliant, it is the only one we could find in our 4 years of looking that would do exactly what we wanted. It has honestly taken a huge amount of admin of our hands. It is is almost 100% customisable. Read full review Peace and Riot UK
