What's Included?

✔️ ID & Document Compilation

We handle end-to-end collection of:


  • Government-issued ID
  • Employment proof (payslip, company ID, certificate of employment)
  • Additional documents (if available): diploma, tax records, licenses


Delivered as a clean, secure PDF — ready for upload or internal recordkeeping.

✔️Reference Check (Up to 3 contacts)

We contact up to 3 references to verify:


  • Role, working relationship, and timeline
  • Work ethic, reliability, and team behavior
  • Whether they'd recommend the candidate again

Each reference includes a tone flag (positive / neutral / caution) and direct remarks when permitted.
