Veref Work History
Verify what they did, not what they say they did.
Candidates submit a structured account of their last 2-3 roles: responsibilities, scope, and specific achievements. Veref confirms or contradicts each claim with verified former colleagues we identify via LinkedIn and employer records.
Verifiers, not contacts
We pick the colleagues. The candidate doesn't.
Every legacy reference tool asks the candidate for an email address and trusts whoever answers. Veref identifies former colleagues with verified employment overlap, then asks them to confirm or contradict specific claims, not give a character opinion.
- Verifiers sourced via LinkedIn and employer records
- Government ID and liveness check before any answer is recorded
- Multiple verifiers per claim, across reporting lines
- Candidate cannot select friends or family
Verified colleague
Marcus Ford · VP Engineering, Parallax (2021–2024)
Verifiers are sourced via LinkedIn and employer records, not candidate-supplied emails.
Claims, not character
Specific achievements, confirmed or contradicted.
The candidate writes structured claims about each role: scope, ownership, results. Verifiers respond to each claim individually. You see exactly which achievements were confirmed, which were softened, and which were contradicted, with verifier identity attached.
- Structured claims, not free-text references
- Per-claim confirm or contradict from each verifier
- Quantified scope (team size, budget, SLA, revenue)
- Achievements travel with the candidate's Passport
