Seeing a lot of "Can anyone refer me?" posts here.

If you're looking for a referral, please do the following first:

✅ Visit the Careers Portal
✅ Find a role that matches your experience, skills, and expected pay
✅ Read the Job Description carefully
✅ Note down the Job ID

Then comment with:

* Job ID
* Your LinkedIn profile link

I'll review it, reach out if needed, collect your email, and submit the referral.

Please avoid posting generic "Can you refer me?"
