We’re excited to announce that Qualification Verification Checks are now available in Trust Marketplace (TMP) through our Xref platform.

Trust Marketplace now offers instant verification* of graduate qualifications.

Whether it’s for legal compliance, to add extra confidence to your organisation’s hiring process or for any other due diligence objective, this new feature allows you to easily check the education qualifications claimed by candidates or existing employees.

No more need to go to individual institutions or multiple check providers

Gone are the days of contacting individual institutions or multiple check providers. Streamline your due diligence process. 

With Xref's new Graduate Verification Service you can access instant Graduate Qualification Verifications where a participating education provider/institution is available.

Results of a Graduate Qualification Verification can be a match, partial match or no match

Xref has access to over 50,000 educational institutions globally in more than 195 countries. Results provide you with a detailed report indicating if there is a “match,” “partial match,” or “no match” based on the information provided by the candidate.

No such central database has existed before the Qualification Verification Checks service, resulting in slow and expensive graduate qualification checks. In many cases, traditional methods of verification have not been reliable and access to institutions around the world is a challenge. 

Qualification Verification Checks complement Xref’s existing suite of Background Checks and are a great new addition to the verifications offered in our Trust Marketplace ensuring confidence in your hiring process.

For Xref, it’s a priority to remove the painstaking, fragmented, and manual processes that make it almost impossible to verify that an employee is being truthful about their qualifications– the year of course completion and results are rarely obtained with a manual request, and mere confirmation of attendance is not sufficient. 

The value of background checks and reference surveys

Background and screening checks are important for ensuring trust and reliability.

In the context of hiring, verification checks and reference surveys are crucial for confirming information provided by a candidate during an interview. 

Using Qualification Verification Checks, employers can quickly and reliably vet hundreds of candidates and employees simultaneously, saving time and resources.

By verifying information, these checks help protect organisations from potential risks and fraud.

Some of the checks available on the Trust Marketplace inclde Identity Checks, Employment Checks, Police Checks, Financial Checks, Visa Checks and Government Document Verification

What is Xref’s Trust Marketplace?

As a growing community of global checking vendors, Trust Marketplace is an aggregator for enhanced due diligence in the online trust environment. 

Xref developed the Trust Marketplace because we recognised that in the online environment, verifying information has never been more essential. 

Xref’s Trust Marketplace brings together the best background checks from around the world, including Identity (ID) Checks, Police Checks, Government Document Verification Services (DVS), Financial Checks, Right to Work (Visa) Checks and many more. 

This marketplace is only available through the Xref Enterprise platform.

With access to top-tier vendors from around the world, the Trust Marketplace offers a large number of check providers on a single platform, making it API Agnostic and exclusively available from Xref.

3 main benefits of using Xref's Trust Marketplace include easy to implement, 100% agnostic and the ability to access checks from around the globe

What are the benefits of using Xref’s Trust Marketplace?

Trust Marketplace provides easy access to multiple global checks, allowing you to conduct all your pre-employment and employment checks in one place. The platform has many benefits such as: 

Easy access to multiple global checks

You can conduct all your pre-employment and employment checks in one place. Access the best-in-class vendors from around the world in a single click.

Easy to implement

API driven, online and simple to conduct - it takes seconds to set it up. Your team can access a global suite of screening checks, many with instant results. 

100% Agnostic

You can easily and nearly instantly connect to various vendors without being tied down to any specific vendor.

How can you access Trust Marketplace?

All checks on Trust Marketplace can be accessed from the new Xref platform. 

Due to the relationships Xref has developed with multiple global vendors in background and verification checking, we take pride in making very easy the process of conducting due diligence through verification for our customers. 

The Trust Marketplace gives Xref customers access to multiple background checks, in addition to Xref’s reference surveys, in a very simple and fast manner.

How does Trust Marketplace comply with security and data governance? 

Our checks and verifications are secure and compliant. We meet International Standards, are ISO 27001 - Information Security Management Systems Certified and use Military Grade AES-256 Encryption to ensure information and data storage safety and security. 

Simplifying the talent journey

Xref simplifies talent management for the organisations that use our platform. We provide insights that enable confident and people-focused decisions such as who to recruit, retain or rehire.

Why conduct a reference survey and background check?

During the hiring process, Xref’s Reference Surveys assist organisations with opinion-based feedback provided by previous managers who share valuable insights on candidates. 

Reference surveys are different to screening and verification checks, as checks expire and they don’t provide indepth feedback from people who know the candidate. 

Organisations using the Xref platform also have access to our comprehensive suite of employee engagement and exit surveys which allows them to obtain feedback from their team members for the entire hire-to-retire journey.

Final thoughts 

In addition to our best-in-class talent survey solutions, we’re proud to make verification and background checking easy for our customers through Trust Marketplace. Organisations no longer need to be restricted by geographical boundaries for screening and background checks. 

The Trust Marketplace is only available on Xref and provides access to multiple additional checks in a simple and fast manner, enhancing the overall talent management process. 

If you would like to become a partner or access qualification verification and other checks, get in touch with us today.

*instant verifications are available from participating education providers as part of the Graduate Verification Service in Australia and New Zealand. If an instant verification is unavailable at the time, Xref will use other vendors to fulfil the request, but this may not be instant.
