Confirm that a candidate genuinely worked for a past employer
The result stays tied to a visible verification source or confirmation event.
Employment reference checks
A reference should last longer than one phone call.
Workers invite genuine past employers to confirm the relationship and work directly. Confirmed references become portable evidence the worker can carry forward to future opportunities.
Workers, households and employers
What Backmi changes about the checking process.
Traditional references disappear when numbers change, people move or a former employer becomes difficult to reach. Backmi turns a completed confirmation into reusable work evidence while protecting the referee's contact details.
Record whether employment dates match the worker's claim
Self-reported information is kept distinct from evidence confirmed by someone else.
Carry confirmed references from one hiring process to the next
Consent, evidence status and the resulting record stay understandable to the person reviewing it.
How Backmi works
Evidence first. Candidate control throughout.
Backmi does not turn a claim into a fact because it was typed into a form. Verification sources remain visible, pending evidence remains pending, and business access requires candidate approval.
1 · Ask
A worker builds a profile or a business requests a specific check.
2 · Confirm
Past employers, institutions or verification sources confirm the relevant evidence.
3 · Share
The worker shares by PIN/QR or approves a company's request before the report opens.
Questions
Questions about employment reference checks.
Does the worker write their own reference?
No. Workers can make a claim, but self-reported claims contribute zero verification points. The past employer confirms the work separately.
Are referee details shown to hirers?
No. Hirers see the confirmation, while referee names and phone numbers remain private.
What if dates do not match?
A mismatch is shown rather than silently corrected, so the worker and hirer can address it.
Can a friend act as a referee?
References are intended for people the worker genuinely worked for. Backmi also checks for suspicious reference patterns.
