Hey there, 

Refapp is back in your inbox with lots of exciting news and inspiration! Our tech team has been working hard to deliver smart new features, and we’ve got some events and insights we want to share with you – scroll down to see what’s new! 🙌

New Features 🚀

Choose sender for reference checks

You can now select which user will appear as the sender in the communication related to a reference check – regardless of who is managing the process. ✉️

Customize views with assigned project types 🔧

You can now control which features and settings different users see in Refapp – based on the project types assigned in subaccounts. Perfect when working with multiple project types like reference checks, employment verification, or consultant evaluations.

Remove candidate deadline ⏳

You can now remove the candidate deadline from reference requests – ideal if you want to prevent candidates from waiting until the last minute or avoid renewing links unnecessarily.

Inspiration & events! 🎉

Refapp is heading to RecFest in Nashville! 🎪

We’re thrilled to join RecFest on October 15–16 – the ultimate Talent Acquisition festival to learn, share, and celebrate. We’ll be there to connect, exchange ideas, and show how Refapp makes reference checking digital, secure, and hassle-free.

If you’ll be there too, make sure to stop by and say hi! 👋

Tip! Lunch Webinar: Automation & AI for HR

On September 24, HR Tech Meetup invites you to an exciting lunch webinar on how AI can be used in HR processes. Refapp’s Niklas Ekberg, who is also one of the organizers behind HR Tech Meetup, will moderate the conversation between Thomas Eklöf from AI for HR and Kristján Kristjánsson from 50skills. 👋
