SkillSurvey Pre-Hire 360™ delivers on-demand reference checking via a proprietary method. The technology permits companies to efficiently and economically review applicants’ professional references using a 360° approach to assess past performance. The assurance of confidentiality, as well as 24/7 accessibility, makes the approach user friendly. On average, 4.4 references respond within 1.6 business days. Investing just a few minutes of their time, recruiters and hiring managers can receive the information they need to make better hiring decisions. In addition, the SkillSurvey Pre-Hire 360™ adds consistency to and minimizes bias in the reference-checking process, improving defensibility.

As an added advantage, SkillSurvey’s approach rapidly builds a passive candidate database, enabling recruiters to more effectively source for new talent.

"There’s never been more pressure on recruiters and hiring managers to improve quality of hire while reducing the time to screen and on-board," said Doug LaPasta, founder and Board chairman. "We discovered a breakthrough solution to a challenge faced by virtually all companies. For a prestigious organization like Human Resource Executive® to honor us as a Top HR Product further validates our solution."

Human Resource Executive’s choices for this year’s Top Products were announced in the magazine’s October 2nd issue. The organizations are being honored today at an awards luncheon during the HR Technology Conference. Ray Bixler, president and CEO, will accept on behalf of SkillSurvey.
