Discover how OneReference was born from a simple idea: making professional references trustworthy, efficient, and accessible for everyone.
To revolutionize the way professional references are managed, verified, and shared, creating a more transparent and efficient hiring process that benefits both candidates and employers worldwide.
From identifying a problem to building a global solution
Our founders, experienced HR professionals and tech entrepreneurs, witnessed firsthand the inefficiencies in traditional reference checking. Delayed responses, lost emails, and unreliable contact information were causing significant delays in hiring processes, affecting both candidates and employers.
We envisioned a platform where professional references could be managed digitally, verified securely, and shared instantly. After months of research and development, we began building OneReference with a focus on user experience, security, and reliability.
OneReference officially launched with our core features: digital reference management, automated follow-ups, and secure sharing. Our beta users included forward-thinking companies and job seekers who helped us refine the platform based on real-world feedback.
With thousands of users and hundreds of companies on board, we expanded our team and introduced enterprise features, advanced analytics, and API integrations. We also established partnerships with leading HR technology providers.
Today, OneReference serves over 50,000 users across 500+ companies worldwide. We continue to innovate with AI-powered insights, blockchain verification, and global expansion plans to make professional references seamless everywhere.
