"Review for XREF"

What do you like best? Easy to use functionality, geo-tracking and simple fast process to upload candidate details and send out reports. What do you dislike? Can sometimes indicate negative comments on the reference report, when in reality it is positive or neutral. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? Quicker turn around time for candidates, able to send out / translate reports in other languages, easy to access for users (mobile friendly).

For example, if a candidate fills out a reference themselves or does not provide professional email addresses, Xref sends us a notification. What do you dislike about Xref? Not speaking to a reference directly over the phone can sometimes be a con - less ...
