Reference ChecksFast, Flexible Background Checks for Developer Hiring
Enter a candidate, choose the depth, receive a verified report in 3–24 hours.
The Hidden Cost of a Wrong Hire
Interviews produce distorted signals. Both recruiters and candidates "perform" — hiding real gaps. Formal references arrive too late, when only 1-2 finalists remain.
What HR Can't Do Alone
Third-party backchannel checks are more trusted but hard to execute. We have the network reach, speed, neutrality, and compliance expertise.
Back-channel References That Cut Through the Noise
AI-polished interviews and inflated LinkedIn profiles make it hard to know who's real. Nexton has direct access to trusted operators across the tech ecosystem for fast, discreet verification.
