of candidate referrals. As a bonus, candidates referred by employees
often ramp up to full productivity quicker
than candidates from other
sources.

referral program in place? If not, you should look to develop one.
If you do have a program, look for route to improve it.
Consider your internal marketing. How are you holding employees
know just about the kinds of candidates you want? How are you effort them
excited just about production
referrals? Do they cognize what's in it for them?

performers from their previous workplace, in addition to friends? Is
it clean to employees once
bonuses are awarded and how more can be
earned? Remember that a bonus paid for an worker
referral gives you
