One example of online reference selection is when a hiring manager is reviewing a candidate's application for a job and decides to contact the candidate's previous employers for references. The hiring manager may visit the official websites or professional networking profiles of the candidate's previous employers to find contact information or look for any relevant testimonials or recommendations about the candidate. The hiring manager may then reach out to these references via email or through an online form to request feedback on the candidate's performance, work ethic, and other relevant qualities. The hiring manager can then use this information to make a more informed decision about whether to proceed with the candidate's application.
