Have you ever been desperate enough for a job to pay someone you met on LinkedIn for a referral? Because I'm at that point. How much do you think I should offer them for the referral?

Definitely not - that sounds like a very disingenuous way of getting a referral in my opinion. I completely empathize, as I know the market is not good right now - but this is not the way.

You should explore fractional roles, consulting, part time work or networking to help get you engaged and out there, without paying someone to falsify a referral.

When I did hiring, we changed policies internally for referral bonuses because people were taking actions like this, plus if it ever came out you paid someone for a referral - I think it would be seen as low integrity from an HR professional.

You should have a LinkedIn post "Dear Network - I never thought I'd be in this position.. but I need help, etc". I know it seems scary and hopeless - but don't stop trying, something will come a long and you won't need to compromise yourself to get it.

Good luck, you got this!

I would be very cautious. Paying for referrals can cross ethical and professional lines and may backfire. A stronger approach is asking for insight, feedback, or a warm introduction without money involved.

Be careful on that one, it can be risky, I personally wouldn’t but I really feel for you if that’s what you’re feeling you’re having to do.

I’m not naive or fresh out of law school, but I’m at a point where I’m saying to myself “Why can’t I have it all?” I’ve been offered a job for more pay and less hours and I keep thinking to myself, what’s the catch? I know people will say no promotion potential or that’s not how it works…but what if it could? What if you make yourself valuable by still setting your boundaries? Why would we resent someone who has that opportunity?
