Info Cubic is now a division of Orange Tree. Read the press release.
Info Cubic's professional and personal reference checks can offer insight into an applicant's work ethic, reliability, personality, and ability to communicate and get along with others.
Many employers have a company policy to verify the dates and position of former employees. While this is helpful in validating the information provided on a resume, it doesn’t necessarily tell you if the individual will be a good fit for your organization. This is why many employers count on personal or professional references to assess an individuals work ethic and determine if they will mesh with the company’s culture.
It’s important to know that employees reflect your company’s values at almost any level or position, but references can become extremely valuable for those who will be the face of your organization and present your culture outside of your four walls. They are also helpful when seeking to fill a management position, as your leaders should always support the growth and development of your culture and promote positive brand recognition both internally and externally.
