Can’t happen- the 2nd person gets a notification that the candidate’s resume is already in the system.

The first person to put you in the system will get the bonus. And that person is tied to you for 6 months. Once you’ve been referred you can go in and apply to whatever. It will still show you as a “referral”

You do realize that people have to know you and endorse the quality of your work before submitting a referral, right?

funny

You clearly have. Lol.

If the first person officially referred you (as in you received an email inviting you to apply), no one else can refer you for 6 months I believe. That person “owns” you in the system

Have one refer you and other support that referral via email

Dear god. In any professional setting , if a candidate gets backing of two people internally vs one , it’s a good thing. Referral is a mechanism, a process. I’m talking about improving odds of getting an actual job. If you know two people, it improves your job. Recruiters don’t make hiring decisions.

Again , one last time : One can refer as per the process. Others can also support that. Forget about the process, referral bonus. It would be asinine to just have someone “refer” you and not leverage other connections you have.

It’s common sense. How is it this difficult to understand ? LOL

That's a recipe to make sure you don't get hired...

Had an interview for an associate position at Citi. Interviewee was based in London and I’m in NYC. The only interview time that worked was 6am. I was barely functioning and feel like I truly messed up in my answers because I couldn’t not think clearly. I have another with the head of the division next week again at 6am (pre determined before this interview). It was also hard because the division’s core work is private enough that there was not much prep I could do beforehand. Tips?

🐠, need opinions/advice. Persistent recruiter asked me to consider having an exploratory convo with a company for a VP role even though I’m not looking to make a switch. That casual convo has morphed into two interviews this week, one with an SVP and EVP and one with the global head of the practice. It would be a $65k bump in salary. Worth going through with it? Should I mention that I’m not actively looking to leave my current job? Been here 6 months…

I interviewed with a top big law firm last week for a Senior Project Manager role. I felt fairly good and confident post the interviews. Sadly I was not given the offer.

Prior to the interviews, I felt I needed more experience …. Lol. Anyone else felt the same?

Many thanks.
