Questions built for the role
Ask the right questions for every reference.
A generic questionnaire misses what matters. Righteo's survey builder lets you create role-specific question sets — different questions for a manager reference vs a peer reference, for a clinical role vs a sales role. Build once, reuse every time.
- Separate question sets for manager vs peer references
- Rating scales, open-ended, and yes/no question types
- Save and reuse templates across your team
Know your references are real
A glowing reference means nothing if it's fake.
Righteo automatically flags suspicious patterns so you can trust what you receive.
- IP address matching between candidate and referee
- Email domain verification — flags personal emails from claimed managers
Records that hold up
Consistent. Structured. Defensible.
Phone reference notes are inconsistent, subjective, and legally fragile. Righteo responses are structured, timestamped, and stored — creating a compliant record of your hiring process.
- Same structured questions for every candidate in a role
- Timestamped records stored securely in your dashboard
- Exportable PDF reports for file storage or ATS upload
- Australian data hosting — your data stays in Australia
Turn references into pipeline
Your referees are your warmest leads.
Referees are professionals who've just spent 10 minutes engaging with your business. Righteo's lead generation tools let you add a soft opt-in at the end of the referee experience, capturing warm contacts from every check you run.
- Optional lead capture at the end of the referee flow
- Referee details stored separately from reference data
- Configurable opt-in — Australian Privacy Act compliant
- Best suited for recruitment agencies and HR consultancies
