Built-in Marketing and Segmentation
Create lists of your high-performing referrers and place referred candidates into specific talent pools that reflect your different recruiting needs. Then target these audiences with specific, tailored, automated email and SMS communications. You can also engage with talent outside your workforce from alumni, vendors and customer networks by allowing them to submit referrals too.
Transparency as a Driver for Engagement
Drive adoption of your referral program with customizable levels of transparency. Select what information you show to employees regarding the status of their referrals. Additionally, you can choose to auto-notify them of any meaningful advancement in the process, ensuring that your referrers are always up to date on their submissions.
Enhance your Referral Program with Gamification
Reward your employees based on the number of successful referrals, or create a scoring system with micro-rewards to recognize employees for smaller actions such as the number of candidates referred. Then publicize their score referral leaderboards to showcase your top referrers and encourage other employees to participate in the program.
Enable employees to easily share links to specific jobs via email, Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter to encourage viralization through social sharing. In the spirit of gamification, these links track the referral back to the original referrer, so employees are credited for their efforts.
Optimize the Referral Experience
Customize your immediate response to employee referrals, choose to trigger a verification email, a request for information or an invitation to apply. Employee referrals will then remain in your talent pools even if they decide not to follow through with the job application.
Real-time Reporting
Analyze response, participation, ROI, effectiveness and other relevant factors to periodically review the strategies being used and adjust direction quickly to fit your evolving needs.
