Reference Checks
Collect references without leaving your ATS
Reference checking is built into Pinpoint, so your team can request, track, and review references directly from the candidate profile.
Take the pain out of reference checks
Reference checking doesn't have to mean email threads, spreadsheets, and chasing. Pinpoint handles the requests, the reminders, and the tracking so your team doesn’t have to.
Get started fast with pre-built templates for academic, employment, and character references. Each template is fully customizable and automatically aligns with your brand identity, ensuring candidates and referees have a consistent experience that reflects your employer brand.
Set automatic reminders so both candidates and referees respond sooner. Pinpoint sends follow-ups on your behalf, so your team can focus on moving candidates forward instead of chasing outstanding responses.
Track the status of every reference request, see when reminders have been sent, and view submitted referrals, all directly from the candidate's profile in Pinpoint.
