Making your first referral

Referring someone is easy and takes just a few minutes. Here's how to make your first referral.

Step 1: Find a job

Browse jobs and find one that's perfect for someone you know. Consider their skills, experience, and career goals.

Step 2: Get your referral link

Click Refer Someone on the job listing. You'll get a unique link that tracks the referral to you.

Step 3: Share the link

Send your referral link to the candidate via:

  • Email
  • Text message
  • LinkedIn
  • WhatsApp
  • Any other messaging app

Step 4: They apply

When they click your link and apply, the referral is automatically tracked to you. You'll see it appear in your dashboard.

Step 5: Track progress

Monitor your referral's status:

  • Applied - They've submitted their application
  • In Review - Employer is reviewing
  • Interviewing - They're in the interview process
  • Hired - Congratulations! Your reward is pending
  • Reward Paid - Money in your account

Tips for success

  • Only refer people you genuinely think are a good fit
  • Tell them why you think they'd be great for the role
  • Offer to help them prepare for interviews
