Reference Check:
In order to avoid questions regarding your hiring methods, it is a good idea
to create the following documents as you perform a reference check:
- a list of all references checked.
- the name of the person who actually contacted the reference check.
- how you contacted the references from the reference check, namely, by
telephone or by letter.
- notes on all telephone conversations made during the reference check.
- name and job title of every person you spoke with regarding the reference
check.
- a copy of the return letter.
- copies of actual records received, e.g., credit bureau checks, driving
records, etc.
- the fact that you made every reasonable effort to contact the reference
listed but could not do so.
- the fact that you did contact the reference given but could not get
sufficient information from the source to complete the reference check..
