Reflynk is a character reference checking service that is completely customizable for any and all of your automated reference check needs.  Each candidate being considered is sent an initial email and text message asking them to enter the name of each reference, the reference's email address, and their mobile phone number as well as well as any other desired contact information. Once this step has been completed, the references are each individually sent a subsequent email and a text message that  asks the reference to complete the requested survey questions.  Our clients then receive daily digests of the status of each requested reference check. They can also log into their account at any given to time to check on the status of their report.  When all references have completed the necessary surveys, the client will be able to download the PDF showing the aggregated results of their references and responses.

This time-saving solution is completely candidate driven and relieves a majority of the work your internal Human Resources (HR) or Administrative team deals with. They then have more time to focus on other important areas needing to be addressed by those specific entities.
