Case Study: Texas A&M University digitises talent verification with Xref

Texas A&M University achieves 97% reference completion with Xref

Texas A&M University faced the challenge of balancing the need for thorough candidate reference checks with the institutional requirement for a fair, unbiased, and consistent evaluation process. Their previous method of phone-based references was inconsistent, time-consuming, and resulted in scattered documentation. To solve this, the university partnered with Xref to digitize its talent verification system.

By implementing the Xref platform, the university automated its reference requests with standardized questionnaires and advanced security protocols for fraud detection. This solution provided centralized compliance and saved the recruitment team and hiring managers countless hours each week. The results for Texas A&M included a 97% reference completion rate, an average turnaround time of 26 hours, and 55% of references being completed outside of business hours.
