Give your people a voice with a tailored Xref Engage survey.
Increase retention and reduce turnover with quick employee feedback from an Xref Pulse Survey.
Since 2010, Xref has been on a mission to empower organisations to make confident people-focused decisions.
We began as an automated reference checking solution with our main aim being to put the task of references back into the hands of candidates.
We encouraged the HR and recruitment industry to transition away from phone-based checks to reduce time to hire and ensure compliance throughout the process. We have succeeded on a global scale and are used in 195 countries.
But over the years, just as reference checking has changed, so has Xref. From our beginnings in 2010, Xref has flourished into a best-in-class HR and recruitment technology company that empowers organisations with people-focused feedback to make great decisions.
With a passionate team behind everything that we do, Xref's vision is to make it easier for the world to hire and track talent throughout their journey by changing the way organisations collect and action feedback from their people.
We’ve always considered ourselves innovators and disruptors, looking to create opportunity. We listen to our customers and implement feedback to create one source of talent truth. Everything we do reflects our passion, innovation and drive.
So, why are we talking about innovation today?
Xref recently conducted our 2023 Customer Satisfaction Survey with the support of Xref Engage. Thank you to those who participated for your feedback and support.
We chose to conduct our Customer Satisfaction Survey because we were fuelled by the desire to have tangible feedback from our customers about our product, processes and people.
One of our key findings was that innovation matters to you - our customers. 78% of our users find Xref to be innovative.
Here’s what some of our customers had to say about our innovation in the recent 2023 Customer Satisfaction Survey.
“The ease of use [is my favourite thing about Xref]. It's one of the best platforms I've used. Would never go back.”
“The platform is user friendly and consistent... It is a time saver and truly a great platform to use.”
“[I benefit from the] efficiency of the platform. Plus the integration with our Talent system is very effective at reducing time.”
“I like the security and the reports. [The platform is] easy to make new templates.”
“The platform and dashboard is simple enough for hiring managers to learn and confidently navigate their way.”
Xref holds innovation core to who we are. Over the course of our history, Xref has steadily released first-to-market innovations to offer our customers a truly best-in-class solution and experience.
