Position-Specific Reference Questions
ORC creates role-specific scored questionnaires based on the position requested, such as sales, management, operations, healthcare, technical, driver, administrative, finance, and labor roles.
Fraud Signal Review
ORC helps identify suspicious response patterns, including same IP address, same device/browser, unusually fast completions, duplicate typed responses, and suspicious email patterns.
Same IP Address
Flags when multiple references are submitted from the same IP address.
Same Device or Browser
Detects when references are completed on the same device, even with different email addresses.
Unusually Fast Completions
Flags surveys completed in an unrealistically short time.
Duplicate Typed Responses
Identifies suspiciously similar response patterns across multiple references.
Suspicious Email Patterns
Analyzes reference email domains for patterns associated with temporary or fabricated addresses.
Relationship Inconsistencies
Cross-references stated relationships against response content to surface inconsistencies.
