Posted by Kristy-Lee Billett on 24 June 2020

Hello and welcome to Episode 15 of the People Powered Business Podcast!

In today's episode we are discussing Reference Checks are they archaic or an essential tool to use as part of your hiring decisions. I share with you my top tips for conducting relevant and useful reference checks as part of your recruitment process and discuss why some employers tell me they think contacting referees is a complete waste of time.
