Not sure what to ask when a candidate's referee finally picks up the phone? Reference Check Question Set builds a structured list of questions about performance, reliability, and fit. You set the number, the depth, and the angle. It hands you a clean sheet to work from, so the call stays focused and fair. No more freezing after a weak opener.
Short answer: Reference Check Question Set is a free AI tool that writes structured reference check questions. Choose how many questions, how deep to go, and the theme, then generate a ready to use list for any referee call.
What is Reference Check Question Set?
Reference Check Question Set is a question generator for the final step of hiring. A reference check confirms what you learned in interviews. It is your chance to hear how someone worked from a person who managed them. You tell it how many questions you want and the angle to take. It returns a list covering performance, reliability, and fit. Every question stays open ended, so the referee talks and you listen. Use it for a phone call, a video call, or a written form.
What Makes a Reference Question Worth Asking
A weak reference check gets weak answers. "Was he good?" invites a yes and nothing more. Strong questions ask for examples. They probe how someone handled pressure and feedback. They check the story the candidate told you.
A useful reference question usually:
- ✅ Asks for a specific example, not a rating
- ✅ Focuses on job-relevant behavior
- ✅ Leaves room for an honest answer
- ✅ Follows up on anything vague
Stay compliant Keep every question job related. Skip anything about age, health, religion, or family. Reference check laws vary by location, so confirm what you may ask before you call, and check anything sensitive with your HR or legal team.
How Does Reference Check Question Set Work?
You can build a set in under a minute:
- Type the role and any concerns into the prompt box.
- Pick an AI model from the selector.
- Open Advanced Options and set the number of questions, length, and theme.
- Press Generate and read the output card, with its word count and reading time.
- Copy the list, download it as TXT, Word, or HTML, or listen before a call.
- Open it in the editor to add your own question, then reuse it next time.
Your recent sets stay in the activity history for the session.
Tuning Your Question Set
Advanced Options control the shape of the list. Most menus start at a default, which lets the tool decide. Adjust them to fit the role and the call length.
| Option | What it controls | Suggested starting point |
|---|---|---|
| Number of Questions | How many you get | 10 |
| Prompt Length | How detailed each question is | Medium |
| Style | The angle of the questions | Growth |
| Theme | The area the set covers | Career |
You can also toggle Include Follow-up Prompts for probing sub questions, Group by Theme to sort the list into sections, and Include Guidance Notes on what a strong answer sounds like. A Depth slider sets how searching the questions get. Use the Custom Instructions box to name a skill or claim you want checked. Try the General theme for a broad call, or 5 questions for a quick reference.
