Case Study: Precision Sourcing achieves rapid, compliant reference checks and increased recruiter productivity with Xref

How Xref Reduces hiring challenges for Precision Sourcing

Precision Sourcing, a fast-growing Australian technology and data staffing business, faced slow, “old school” reference checks that were time-consuming, error-prone and delayed placements—especially for overseas referees. To fix this they adopted Xref’s digital reference-checking service, integrated directly into their Bullhorn ATS, to provide a compliant, secure and faster way to validate candidates.

Xref’s solution lets Precision Sourcing request checks from Bullhorn in a three-click process and track progress in real time, delivering an average turnaround of 24 hours, a 99.6% completion rate and 41.3% of references completed out of hours. The vendor’s platform reduced administrative burden, freed consultants to focus on clients and candidates, improved decision-making and even generated new business through more detailed reference reporting, while adding benchmarking and fraud-detection safeguards.
