- Use the default questionnaire provided or customize it by adding, removing, or editing questions.
- Specify the type of response required for each question (brief response, long response, yes or no, rating on a scale, or date).
- Use tokens like "candidate's first name" to personalize questions for each candidate.
- Choose the types of references you want to collect from candidates (e.g., direct supervisor, peer, etc.).

Cautionary Notes:
- Ensure that the questions in the reference questionnaire are relevant and provide valuable insights about the candidate.
