Do you think its worth checking the candidate reference before sending the candidate profile to the client?
In what situations would you feel a candidate referral might tilt the scales at the early stage.
Typically a candidate might not be comfortable in giving referrals that realy count - the ones from his immediate superior. In such cases would it be worthwhile checking referrals from clients or vendors.

Normally candidate reference is checked by the employer and not by the consultant. It is okay checking the referals given by the clients or vendors. After all what we want to know is whether the candidate is trustworthy or not. The referal gives the necessary support in this regard.
