Abstract: A method of operating an online recruitment management site, such as an employment recruitment site, includes the steps of capturing information of reference providers provided by a candidate and sending the reference providers an invite to accept to be reference providers for the candidate. After the reference providers accept the invitation and verify their information, their names and information are automatically added to the candidate's profile for potential recruiters, e.g. employers, to view. The reference providers also have the opportunity to enter evaluations regarding the candidate on the site. The reference providers' evaluations are readily and conveniently available for the recruiters to view and assess the candidate's suitability for the recruited position during their initial screening and selection period.
