Mobilizing Reference Validation Simplifies Job Interview Process

By David Gitonga, TMCnet Contributing Writer

Chequed.com, Inc has announced the details of the new mobile-optimized referencing platform, an addition to its online reference checking and pre-employment testing solutions. The organization has made its cloud-based reference checking system, ChequedReference, accessible on all iPhone, iPad, Android (News - Alert), Windows Mobile and Palm enabled devices.



By doing this, the company enhances how job references share feedback on data related to candidates, hence empowering employers to review the findings of their before employment reference checking while on the go.

With technological trends regarding adoption of smartphones and the general move into Internet access through mobile devices on the rise, customers are increasingly bound to exploit any productivity apps deployed on their mobile gadgets. Chequed.com exploits this window of opportunity by offering an easy way for references hence working on candidates’ references at any time and from where it is most convenient.

Employers using ChequedReference reap from a very effective pre-employment reference checking system supported by behavioral science that leads to better candidate selection. A candidate will just have to enter the contact information of previous employers then the system sends an email to each of them requesting for a complete reference assessment.



The mobile optimized capability makes it easier for references to complete assessments since the task is not bound to a desktop or laptop computer. In the same line, employers will also be able to go through the results that entail an overall score of the candidate with regard to the job, and an executive summary of the whole review. Interviewing shortlisted candidates from their mobile devices is also possible.

According to the Chairperson and President of the company, Greg Moran, Chequed.com’s main aim is to cut down on the time employers take to go through references hence shortening the time to candidate short listing whilst boosting on candidate choice accuracy.

The technology, which can be deployed on most of the major mobile phone brands, is on exhibition at booth #670 at the 15th Annual HR Technology Conference (October 8-10), Chicago. More information about the solution is available at the company’s website.
