#tbt to 2021 and Episode 28 “Reference Checks Are Stupid”
Sadly, our first rant on this topic didn’t change the world. Reference checks have come back in a big way.

Jeff Smith and James Hornick answer these questions with the commentary you’ve come to expect in The 10 Minute Talent Rant, Episode 67 "Inconvenient Truths About Reference Checks"
