DO reference's count in hiring ??

what do you mean by a reference check!! >> how would you go about doing a reference check??

do you believe ...all or most reference's stand for what they vouch!!

how do you evaluate reference's ...while hiring ??

Comment by Verify Protect on May 29, 2009 at 1:23pm: I think references have a place in hiring. It is surprising what a reference reveal about your applicant. As a pre-screen, it is also a red flag if the applicant is unable to produce at least a few people who could say something nice about them.

Reference checks are about the questions. The best questions are open-ended. For example: Please give me 3 words that describe this person's work style? Also questions like, are you aware of any limitations that may prevent this person from doing this job? Or Have you ever observed the applicant in a stressful situation? How did they handle it?

You evaluate a reference check based on the job description. What do the answers reveal about this person and how they fit with the position?

Hope this helps!
