Some of our customers

Refapp is actually the best HR application I have ever used!

The possibility for us to change the questions and create our own forms to make them fit our company culture, tone and values is brilliant. Also, the feature that lets us schedule a phone call with the referee when this is requested is a great addition to the tool.

Easy reference checking across different time zones

As a global company, Volvo Group Recruitment gets references from all over the world. Refapp is facilitating our reference checking in different time zones and saves us a lot of time. It is also very appreciated to submit a professional, transparent, and objective report to the Recruiting Manager!

Our customers appreciate the structured and professional report

At Jerrie & Maquire, we use Refapp to digitalise our reference checking process. The tool helps us become even more efficient, and it is easier to get in touch with referees, even internationally. The referees appreciate the possibility of being able to provide their answers in writing or by a phone call at an agreed time.
Pierre Sander CEO Jerrie Jerrie

Improved reference experience, higher response rates and professional reporting

Most often, the references have submitted their answers in less than two days and the insights we collect make for confident hiring decisions. In addition, we get great feedback from both references and clients who appreciate the process.

Referees verify themselves and respond
