How to Request Additional Referee Details from a Candidate

You now have the ability to request additional referee details from a candidate! This new feature empowers you to reach out to additional contacts whenever necessary, without needing to restart the reference check from scratch.

1. Open the Add Referee Option

In this example, there were initially 2 referee details requested from the candidate. If you want to ask the candidate to fill out more referees, go to their profile and select the Add Referee button.

2. Choose How to Add Referees

You have two ways to add more referees:

1. Send request email to candidate asking referee details – add referee details by updating the number of referees required for the candidate. Righteo will email the candidate asking them to fill out the additional referee(s).

2. Add referee details manually – add the contact information of one or more referees yourself. You'll first select the reference type, then fill out the referee's information as normal.

3. Update the Referee Count

If you're sending a request email, update the field to reflect the total number of referees you're requiring from the candidate, then Righteo will send the request automatically.

4. Click Done

Once you've chosen an option and entered the details, click Done to save your changes and send the request or add the referee.

Final Thoughts

This feature makes it easy to gather more referee information as a reference check evolves, whether that means sending a follow-up request to the candidate or adding a referee's details yourself. Either way, the candidate's profile stays fully up to date in Righteo.
