Has anyone successfully recommended a peer for a job at their agency and collected the bonus? What was the process like? Any reason not to?

I haven't yet, either because my peer isn't good enough or the agency is a dead-end with no escape. Recommend the wrong person, and you end up looking bad. Recommend the wrong agency, and you lose a friend.

I've over recommended people in the past. That agency won't hire me again. I don't blame them.

Hell yeah. Just submit the resume online. There's a link for it. Then I always send the resume to the hiring manager as well. If I know who that is. Used to be 6 months. Now you get it in 3

I'm on my third bonus in a year. No one ever complains about extra money, and if it's extra money for helping a friend, even better. Just don't do it if you think they're terrible for the job, or you think they shouldn't take it, like others are saying
