@AlaRecruiter and @AmiWilson Win 2 Nexus 7's Sponsored by SkillSurvey

Reference Checking may or may not be a part of your daily recruitment activity. For many, it's a love / hate relationship. For some it's a significant channel for lead generation, for others it's a way to create better hires, faster.

Regardless of your reason for reference checking we have found that on Recruiting Blogs, there are many funny stories that come along with completing reference checks.

We'd like to congratulate our 2 winners from the recent contest:

"Has Reference Checking Become a Check-Box-Item?"

After 30 submissions to the challenge Amy Ala and Ami Wilson were selected from the team at SkillSurvey.
