Reference Checking

While most technical support/development people are honest and can prove their skills some may not be. In these highly competitive times, where one slip up could cost you a client, you would not want to be forwarding resumes to your clients without thoroughly checking the candiates references.

If your client takes their valuable time to interview your candidate, based upon your submission, and then finds out during the interview that the candidate is less than honest it reflects badly on YOU.

Take a few minutes of your time to verify that the candidate has the skills, has worked where they say they have, and has a good work record. Simple, yet some firms don't even bother

You only have one thing of value to your clients, integrity. Don't blow it.
