Allow temp workers to input the contact details of their referees at point of registration
For example when the candidate fills out their details on Firefish via their candidate portal, they have a page where they must input details of their referees with all their contact details (phone, email). The system then allows us to click "email referee" and would automatically generate the request a reference from there. (Options for 3 x ex-employer, education and character reference) Would save us having to chase / input referree details manually as it would form part of the registration process for temps and slicken the process.
Hi Katie,
Thanks for your idea. This is now open for voting.
Many thanks,
Amy

Love this - a free text box on the My References section on registration explaining the reference guidelines - ie 2 years, work email addresses etc etc would also be a beneficial addition

Anything that speeds up the obtaining of references is a good idea in my book. I have raised a couple of things with regard to chasing references too. The ideal ultimate solution to this would be an automated reminder system that is fully customisable. You would create a template for the email chasing uncompleted references, and the system would send reminders at a frequency of your choosing until we get a completed reference back.
