Questions

Reference Verification FAQs

Can a reference check replace employment verification?

No. A reference response and an employment-record confirmation serve different purposes and should remain distinct checks.

Are subjective comments treated as verified facts?

No. They are attributed to the response and presented with the appropriate context.
