Does your workplace offer a referral bonus program? I was able to cash in once on a $1000 bonus early in my career and I felt like I had won the lottery!

We have a bonus referral program but I've never taken advantage of it. I had a bad experience referring someone for a job years ago and haven't done it since. In my case the person didn't get hired and I never heard the end of it, so I decided to not get involved with referrals ever again.

My current workplace is such a small company that it wouldn't make sense for them to do it, as we don't have open positions very often. I was once hired at another company from a referral, and my friend who got the bonus split it with me. We had a very fun shopping day.

They do, but I don't think it is much. I want to say maybe $500 if the person stays for six months after they are hired. It honestly might be less than that now.

I have better luck referring my connections to others in my industry.

We do…but I’ve only been able to successfully refer one candidate

Just to note, this is about a 25% increase compared to what I am currently making.
