The answer is simple: it’s one of the most powerful tools you have in making the right hiring decision. Speaking with at least two references (ideally on landlines for businesses) allows you to dig deeper and gain real insight into a candidate’s reliability, honesty, and overall fit for your team.
Some important questions you can ask include:
- If you had an opening, would you rehire this person?
- Did you trust them?
- Were they reliable and honest?
- How well did they work within your team?
- Did they demonstrate strong communication skills?
Reference checking takes the guesswork out of hiring and helps you confidently choose the right person for your business.
