Verified Companies¶

A 'Verified Company' is a company contact that has been verified to be the most successful avenue to receive a reference from. VettingGateway will learn from the references you approve and will add their contact email to your address book for reference in the future.

Oftentimes, bigger companies (for example; Tesco) will generally have a generic corporate email for references which a candidate may not be aware of. The candidate is likely to provide a contact of their local manager rather than the correct HR contact. When the organisation User goes to request a reference, they will be offered to send it to the verified contact instead of sending it the contact the applicant provided. This function acts like your organisations referee address book to utilise in the referencing process. You will also be given a response stat next to the verified email address to show what emails have had the most successful replies.

Adding a Verified Company¶

To add a verified Company there are 2 ways of achieving this. The first is via the Verified Company page by clicking the '+' icon beside the Verified Company subtitle.

The second way is when a reference has been received by a contact that is not already verified. When the reference is approved you will be asked if you would like to add the contact as a Verified Company. If you click yes, the details will be added to the Verified Company list.

Adding a Suggested Company to the Verified Company list¶

To add a Suggested Company, go to the suggested company table and verify the specific company with the tick icon.
