Got rejected from a firm, but they offered to refer me to another company. Is this a good sign or a consolation prize?

Definitely a good sign, take the referral too, and make sure you follow through even if you aren’t interested in the other company or it doesn’t pan out. They’re doing you a solid, least you can do is see it through.
