This question will help you to compare and verify the position that the reference is describing, with the description that was given to you by the candidate.
Before asking the next question, offer the reference a brief but specific description of the position the candidate is being considered for. Focus on the three top-priority responsibilities to enable the reference to provide specific feedback on each.
