Validation Reference Checking Template (pack of 25)

Do candidates ever embellish or exaggerate during the hiring process?

If you answered “YES” then the next question is; "What percentage do this?" Regardless of the percentage your job as the hiring manager is to validate what they told you in the interview is accurate and true. The fact is most references checking doesn’t even touch on this issue. We ask the normal questions; Would you hire them again? Do they communicate well? etc. This maybe fine but doesn’t address the main point which is, did they embellish or exaggerate?

This pad of 25 templates will help you get right to that issue. We specially designed the form to make sure you ask the right questions that validate what the candidate said in the interview is true and accurate. Don’t accept what the candidate tells you. You need to trust and verify.

Webinar Winning the Phone Interview **FREE**

"I never realized how different the phone interview is. I now know why I didn't do well. Thanks for the tips."Jonathan Diaz, Seattle

"I really like the DRESS Up concept. Jane Burton, Mission Viejo

Do you know the only three things that can be measured in a phone interview?

No, it is just like any other interview.

Wrong. The phone interview is the hardest interview to win. Have you ever had a phone interview you thought went well, but then you never got asked to come in and meet face to face? One reason may be because you answered the phone. Sound strange? Think of it this way: with no personal interaction, there is no real chance to develop chemistry and it is hard to read the interviewer’s reaction to your answers. Every executive must understand the difference between a phone interview and a face to face interview and how to adapt for each. Or the chances are good that you will fail.

Webinar Uncovering the Hidden Job Market - Advanced Networking **FREE**

"Excellent ideas. New ways of networking that have not been covered. Highly recommend it." Tim Jacobs, Boston

"I thought I was good at networking. This gave me some new things to consider," Bill Strosel, Dallas

Are you burned out going from meeting to meeting with nothing but 1200 business cards to show for it?

Networking is not about collecting business cards. Few candidates really understand that there is a right way and an ineffective way to network. Most think it is all about meeting people. It isn't. You can do that at the grocery store. It is about meeting the right people and getting them to refer you to others. You do that and you won't get burned out. Networking is about taking those contacts and turning them into a connection. Candidates that are effective at understanding this generally spend 2 to 3 months less in-transition.

This webinar will show you how to network efficiently. In fact, we will show you how to go to less meetings and make better contacts. Stop going to all those meetings and start recognizing there is a better way. We will show you the steps you can take to reduce your networking time, improve your contacts, get more referrals and most importantly make networking easy.

In one hour the tips you will learn will be the best networking investment you can make. If just one tip from this webinar reduces your time in-transition by one month think what that is worth.
