As Associates, do you provide referrals and is that taken into consideration for recruitment or is that more for VP level and above? Asking because I’m in contact with an Associate at another bank and trying to gauge whether asking for a referral is a smart idea? Any advice on broaching that conversation is also very appreciated! Thanks in advance!

It definitely can’t hurt. If it gets your foot in the door for a first round it’s well worth it.

Don’t think it matters. I’m sure if you have good rapport with VP/hiring mgr a referral from any level should be fine IMO
