Within the Request Settings, add in the position, select the appropriate survey, and configure the number/type of references you want to be associated with this request. Please note, the relationship type can either be specified or you can select any relationship type and let the candidate determine the type of reference. Additionally, you can add customized notes to each specific reference request, i.e. "Please provide a manager reference from X company."

Sending a Crosschq through Workable
Once you have moved your candidate to the assessment step, locate the three dots at the top of your candidate's profile and select Perform a Reference Check.
This will create a new process in your candidate's timeline. Select the Crosschq survey using the drop-down menu and click Perform Reference Check. Your candidate will automatically receive the Crosschq request.
note that the drop-down menu will show the Crosschq templates created before. It is important to create one template for each survey type.
Crosschq Report
The recruiter listed as the reference requestor will receive a notification once the reference request has been completed. You will be able to access the Crosschq report by accessing the candidate's profile and selecting View Report on Crosschq.
Requestor and Hiring Managers
Crosschq will pull the reference requestor from the Team Member list associated with each job in Workable.
Crosschq will select as the requestor the Workable user with "Recruiting Admin" permissions, listed as a team member in the job. If there is no user with recruiting admin permissions listed within the job, Crosschq will select the user with "Super Admin" permissions as the requestor. If there are no users with recruiting admin or super admin permissions, Crosschq will assign the user with "Hiring Manager" permissions as the requestor.
If there is only one team member associated with the job, that user will be selected as the requestor, regardless of their role.
note: if there are no team members listed within the job, then the Crosschq admin user will be the requestor by default.
The rest of the users in the team members list will be listed as Hiring Managers in the Crosschq request.
Hiring Status
Crosschq will automatically update the hiring status after the candidate is moved to the hired stage in Workable.
