A Xref Case Study
Planit Software Testing, a global software testing firm of over 1,300 employees, faced slow, manual reference checks that caused delays of up to three weeks when hiring across time zones. To speed up their final recruitment stage and reduce administrative burden, Planit engaged Xref and implemented Xref’s automated reference checking software.
Using Xref’s platform, Planit cut reference turnaround to within 24 hours (and can now fill roles within a week), achieved a 99.5% reference completion rate, had 58% of references completed outside business hours, and referenced 846 candidates. Xref’s solution also eliminated reference bias, improved HR productivity and ROI, and provided secure, benchmarked reports that boost board confidence in hiring decisions.
