🎙 Podcast with Heidi Lofthus and David Näsström   Heidi Lofthus and David Näsström, co-owner at Refapp, discusses old versus new trends in how references are taken during the recruitment period; how phone calls are outdated, stressing and time costly. Digital solutions continue improving the experience for everyone involved. They also touch upon how reference checking does also come with ethical challenges and the taboo around “backdoor reference taking”. ABOUT DAVID NÄSSTRÖM:  After 10+ years experience of recruiting and responsible for the recruitment process for the largest staffing company in Sweden David wanted to develop the process step that was the most in-efficient - reference checking. Refapp has during the last 4 years disrupted this process step and now digital reference checks are common in Sweden and Norway. After opening a sales office in Dublin last spring Refapp now is represented in 19 countries with aprox 600 customers. _____   This episode of the iGaming NEXT Podcast is hosted by Heidi Lofthus, Project Director at iGaming NEXT and brought to you by:   Pragmatic Solutions. – Leading iGaming platform technology.  For more info, click here: http://pragmatic.solutions  Sponsored by:  Pragmatic Play - https://www.pragmaticplay.com Fast Track: https://www.fasttrack-solutions.com Yolo Group: https://yolo.com
