# HiveRef Discussions

HiveRef is reference checking software for small and medium businesses. Who uses it Owners, office managers and hiring managers who check references themselves, often without an HR team. Common industries include hospitality, retail, trades, childcare, aged care and clinics. How it works 1. Create a check. Enter the role and candidate, then choose questions from a library, a template, AI suggestions or your own. 2. The candidate adds their referees and gives consent through a secure link. Your team can also enter referees directly. 3. Referees fill in an online form on their phone, tablet or computer. HiveRef sends reminders until they respond. 4. You receive a report with each referee's answers, ratings, a summary, integrity flags and a PDF copy. Other features - Integrity flags, for example when two referees respond from the same network. - Question wording is checked for privacy and discrimination risks before you send. - Every step is recorded in a timestamped audit trail. - HiveRef does not make hiring decisions. Your team reviews the report and decides. - Available on the web, iPhone and Android.
